Synopsis :

Asha travels with her parents from America to India to mourn her grandmother's passing. When they arrive at her grandmother's house, it's filled with strangers--and no Grandma. Asha's grief and anger are compounded by the empty yellow suitcase usually reserved for gifts to and from Grandma, but when she discovers a gift left behind just for her, Asha realizes that the memory of her grandmother will live on inside her, no matter where she lives.
