The film revolves around a popcorn seller in a single screen theatre and how he deals with the closure of the theatre he has spent a majority of his life in. The film takes inspiration from the rampant rise of multiplexes and rampant closures of single screens throughout the country.

An uninterrupted rehearsal of Chekhov's 'Uncle Vanya' plays out by a company of actors. The setting: their run-down theater with an unusable stage and crumbling ceiling. The play is shown act by act with the briefest of breaks to move props or for refreshments. The lack of costumes, real props and scenery is soon forgotten.
