Sen Gupta, a doctor who only treats upper-class patients, is forced to confront his own moral and medical beliefs as he discovers rural India during an unexpected stop at a village.

When Dr. Gupta discovers that the village wants a witch doctor to treat the man, he attends the exorcism and is shocked. A transformation of the cold city man then follows |
