A well-off Indian family is paid an unexpected, and somewhat unwelcome, visit by a man claiming to be a long lost relative. The initial suspicion with which they greet the man slowly dissolves as he regales them with stories of his travels, tales that are at odds with their conventional middle-class perspective on the world.
