This film tells the story of a Malaysian boy with autism named Danial. Upon discovering he has autism, his mother Alina goes on a journey from Terengganu to Kuala Lumpur to find out more information about autism and give her son his needed help and support. Tragically, Alina dies from an accidental fall at home, so Danial's father Razlan is left on his own to raise Danial. Although in denial about Danial having autism at first, Razlan becomes more accepting of Danial's condition and strives to support him every step of the way.
