An intense social drama that explores the devastating impact of alcoholism on an individual and his family. The story follows a bus driver whose life is consumed by addiction, despite constant pleas from his wife, mother, and younger brother. A turning point occurs when his wife attempts suicide, but he remains unaware, having passed out from drinking. Deeply shaken, he promises to quit — but the sudden withdrawal leads to severe psychological distress and hallucinations, causing him to suspect an illicit relationship between his wife and brother. Unable to overcome his addiction and inner demons, he returns to drinking, leading to a tragic incident resulting in the loss of innocent lives. Imprisoned and later released, he is left to face irreversible consequences — living with regret, isolation, and a longing for redemption he can never fully reach.
