Plot

Kites Grounded is a film about an old kite maker Chacha Kareem. Passionately in love with his craft, Kareem is a quiet, conflict avoiding man. Having lived all his life making kites and mastering the art, he is forced upon giving up his job to meet the need of time.

His house is full of kites worth easily enough to solve all his problems and support him for the whole year, but the banning of the kite- flying festival (Basant) leaves no one wanting to buying the kites anymore.
