Yuba, a lowly butcher from the backwaters of society, leaves his village in the boondocks and moves to the big city. However, the move is not of his free will. He has committed an uncommon act that creates the compulsion to relocate, an act precipitated by inherent flaws of character. In any event, the move proves to be auspicious as he reaches the pinnacle of success, acquiring great wealth and a position of high respect in society. In the meantime, his past has remained concealed through his long ascent, during which period he has also managed to suppress the more vulgar traits of his character. Both, the uncommon act of his past and the vulgar traits of his character, surface at an inopportune time in his life with catastrophic results. The tragic story of a powerful man ruined by innate flaws of character is not only a fascinating indictment of the frailty of human disposition, it also lays bare the extreme ambiguity of communal values in certain societies. The premise is simple but thought-provoking.
