Naranappa, a Madhwa Brahmin man from Karnataka dies in the Agrahara of the village Durvasapura. As per Madhwa customs, the last rites of the deceased must be performed at the earliest. However, being that Naranappa was a rebel who fought against Brahminism throughout his life, there is disagreement amongst the Brahmins of the village as to who will perform his last rites and light the funeral pyre. Praneshacharya, the head of the Agrahara, a devout and learned Brahmin, tries to find a solution.
