In 2001, a few Kashmiri women from diverse backgrounds and who had experienced the Kashmir conflict differently, came together to listen to each other. They named themselves Athwaas, a Kashmiri word meaning a handshake. The core group of Athwaas later traveled to different parts of the Kashmir Valley and camps of the displaced Kashmiri Pandit community in Jammu, listening to the stories of pain, suffering and resilience of women divided across multiple faultlines. The film traces the emotional and physical journey of each woman in Athwaas beginning from the personal narrative of the director when she first visited the Valley to the time Athwaas was formed.

A unique story of a woman who declassed herself from a class of landlords to become a tribal - against all odds. The film is about a form of service that transcends material help it involves becoming one with others - by empathizing and sharing. Portraying the concept of symbiotic leadership wherein a leader grows organically with those being led.
