As the women cook the traditional Axone wedding stew (a pork stew with pungent local herbs), neighbors complain about its powerful smell. However, they are determined to prepare the aromatic dish. With the challenges brought on by cultural difference and the pressures of being migrants in a seemingly unfriendly city, are food and love enough to save the day?—London Film Festival

- Chanbi and Upasna want to prepare a special North-Eastern Dish, Axone Pork, for their best friend Minam's wedding. The ingredients are bought, the stove is alight, the gang has gathered. There is just one glitch: they all live in New Delhi now, and not Norteast India. And for people here, the dish emits a strong aroma that seems to emanate not so much from a kitchen as from a....lavatory. The gang fears that the dish's pungent odor will invite their neighbors' and landlord's wrath. Comedic chaos ensues and unexpected obstacles arise as they struggle to find a safe place where they can prepare the dish in peace. The film explores the travails of this group of young friends as they grapple with outright racism and the upheavals of their interpersonal relationships throughout the course of one eventful day.
