In a small town torn by territorial disputes between two linguistic communities, Raghu, a radicalised journalist working for an online media outlet, becomes a mouthpiece for an extremist leader. Consumed by his leader’s rhetoric, Raghu believes his community has been wronged. But when the line between his professional and personal life blurs, and he’s confronted with inconvenient truths, he chooses denial, leading to a tragic consequence that forces him to reflect on simpler times. Follower serves as a stark reminder of the toll of extremism and the loss of a young man’s innocence.
