A brief scene: an elderly woman in a coastal village counts sandalwood beads in the dim light of a mourning lamp; outside, monsoon winds strip the coconut palms. She hums a lullaby tangled with the sound of a son’s distant engine—he never returned from the Gulf. The lullaby’s repeated line becomes a refrain that in three terse stanzas shifts from comfort to lament. The specifics—sand-almond taste of lamp smoke, the engine’s faded whine—anchor a universal grief of migration and absence.
