Fathima, a housewife in the coastal town of Ponnani, lives under strict control of her orthodox husband, Ashraf. When their son wets their shared bed, her attempt to replace it sparks escalating conflict. As Ashraf resists her at every turn, Fathima begins to see the mattress not just as comfort, but as a symbol of her independence.
