Plot
"Ram, a London-based businessman of Indian and English descent, has been experiencing mind-shattering nightmares of a mysterious masked woman who torments him. His wife, Jenny, worries desperately for his sanity and tries to shield their young son from the terrors. In India, Ram's aging and ailing father, Dasa, is having a spiritual crisis of his own... when he dies. As Ram mourns his loss, he is assaulted with images, seemingly lost memories for which he has no explanation. He is finally confronted by a beautiful young woman... the vengeful spirit who has been haunting him."
