Tum, a young boy lives in an island in a resort run by his parents. He doesn't have any friends and feels lonely and his father tries to control him a lot including his choice of education. One day he meets another boy names Kim who asks to become friends with him. Initially reluctant, Tum finally gives into Kim's charms and they become close friends. A secret is soon revealed though that Kim is a ghost but the duo decide to stay friends. Soon Tum goes to college and falls for a girl, but a drunken incident leads them astray. Kim tries to be close to Tum all this while, but Tum, who is heartbroken snubs him away. Three months later we find out that Kim has been in coma so far and he finally wakes up. Kim's ex girlfriend goes on a trip to the island and take a photo of Kim, watching which all memories come flooding back to Tum.
Overall the film is trying to be everything about love, friendship, loneliness, parents support and memories. But the final product is very broken. A lot of scenes feel randomly stitched together. For example there is a random scene where the manager of the resort calls her boyfriend who is now dead. That was so random, out of context and had no bearing to the film. Then this other guy who starts seeing Kim's ghost in Tum's dorm is given no introduction on who he is and why can he see Kim's ghost. You can watch the film knowing exactly where that is heading even though you may have to keep your brains aside. I think this film was a waste of time despite the actors trying to make the best of the opportunity given but the amateurish direction and a very choppy story spoils it all. (2/10)
