White Pebble
In a remote village, every weekend 6-year-old ‘Titli’ waits for her friend ‘Bishnu’ who travels with his father from a city far away, to come to the village where they have a home. Titli is honest with her bitterness towards city but lingers to understand how Bishnu feels living there, in the big illusionary world.
But this time, Titli learns that this is Bishnu’s last visit, and he is moving to the city, just like the time her father did, for good. How migration of people from villages to the big cities can take away more than just friendship from little children.
