At the center: there's Rumi, a young boy who grows up in a normal family- yet flinchingly is devoured by the absence of his parents' relationship. Over the years of a silent and lonely family life, he is left inherited with a stack of letters that belong to a stranger, an old and finished father, and his mother's inescapable emotions and memories- altogether that cast a longing shadow on the young man's life.
The narrative weaves a tale of love and the lack of it, loss and it's unsatisfied reality, the past and it's steadfast grip on the present. But mostly, it speaks about how the sufferings of others around can spin together a child's adult life. Piercingly intimate, "The Inherited Custody" is a work of complex emotions and relationships, and at the heart of it- a family saga.
