The story is about a young boy named Behram who lives near Ormara coastal line, Balochistan. His father works for a fishing trawler which barely aids their survival. Like his elder brother Yousuf, his father hopes for Behram to become a fisherman. But, Behram has his eyes set on another dream. Inspired by the Navy officers, he hopes to get education and join the Navy. His dreams are realised when he meets a Navy family willing to help Behram. After 15 years, Behram returns to his hometown after becoming a Naval officer. His return presents him with a life-altering challenge and demands of him a sacrifice that earns him the nation's pride (Laal).
