While trying to rebuild her life, Riya receives a mysterious text from an unknown number that reads: “The door is always open for those who knock.” Intrigued (and desperate), she follows a series of cryptic clues that lead her to a secret community of “survivors” who gather behind a literal khidki (window) —a hidden meeting place where women share their darkest stories and barter for protection.
