Lissy recollect’s that her lover ‘Joy’ could talk to insects. One day as he sneaks her out into the mangroves she discovers love and Joy discovers companionship. The local hierarchy doesn’t approve of this and Joy has to elope. Now a murder suspect, Joy is hunted down by hooligans and the police, escaping only to reveal his true nature. The fragile ecosystem of ‘Puthuyvype’ a small island in Kochi, the exotic migration of birds to the mangroves, the fisherman and the impending danger of a new petroleum company has contributed to joy’s metamorphosis. System, science and religion merge to make sense of joy’s fate as we discover the unnoticable fragile ecosystem that surrounds all of us.  As locals recall in a tale mixed with myth, divinity and disturbing ecological disruptions, Joy was no ordinary man.​ The films speaks about the life of people in and around the island of Puthuvype.
