Maa tells the tale of Ammu (Anikha Surendran), a 15-year-old school-going girl from a typically conservative middle-class family — who discovers she is pregnant in the middle of a hockey match. After some warranted fear-induced deliberation, she confides in her mother, Sathya (Kani Kusruti). The mother's immediate reaction is, as expected, one of shock, disgust and anger. After the daughter persistently apologises for her 'mistake', the mother eventually accepts her. But, of course, they can't share this highly sensitive information with the uptight father, who is (rather forcefully) antagonised as a traditionalist with pre-historic, pre-conceived notions on what constitutes womanly behaviour. So, the mother decides that abortion is the only way her daughter can move on and get her life back on track. And Ammu willfully concurs, gets one and moves on.
