In a colorful rural province, the ruling Lord grants democracy to his faithful citizens. They celebrate with joyous songs. As a token of his good will, the Lord gives the royal dog Apu to his former obedient servant, Koran. Koran and his wife proudly care for the small dog, admired by all the village. One day, Apu bites a duck, then later a boy. Rumor spreads that the Lord knowingly sent Apu amongst the people because the dog has rabies. The peaceful democratic atmosphere of the village is disrupted. The new leader and the disheartened villagers turn against the Lord they once loved and respected. The province is divided, its future uncertain.
