In the backwaters of Kuttanad, a man struggles to find a duck for a child’ s denied lunch, while a schoolboy carries a lunchbox he’s too ashamed to open. A Duck Tale isa quiet story about pride, invisibility, and the soft humiliations we learn to live with.

Suddenly, the luster was gone and disappointment set in.
