Rabi plot

A blacksmith falls off his bicycle trying to avoid a turtle. He takes the animal to his son Rabi, who becomes so fascinated by the turtle that he forgets his duties in his father's shop. Rabi's father takes the turtle, but the boy's grandfather comforts him by finding him a bigger turtle. Rabi then tries to tame this turtle, but in doing so defies his father's authority. For Rabi, however, this is a learning process towards freedom, responsibility and respect for life.
