In Nandgaon, a village that has consciously decided to turn its back on modernity, the simple Ramu sneaks off and marries a beautiful educated girl, Laxmi, who is considered tainted because of her father\\\'s suicide. Soon after his marriage, Ramu finds an abandoned cow in the forest and adopts it. The two unlikely couples meet, and what is at stake is not a cow or a human, but the identify of Nandgaon, and of India itself.
