Synopsis : Chak Chage Ima is a Manipuri short film. The storyline is based on the life hurdles faced by a poor mother and her 4 years old son during the ongoing lockdown period imposed due to covid-19 pandemic. She was doing her morning chores, she heard about the extension of the lockdown on her neighbour's radio. She then realized that she had no rice left to cook. Her starving son started complaining that he was very hungry since she hadn’t gave him rice last night. The helpless mother assured him saying that she will give him food. She gave him some boiled pumpkin instead of giving him rice. But her son denied having it complaining he would rather have rice only not the pumpkin. She was completely helpless in that situation. She concealed her tears up and looked up for some bizarre option to get rid of from the situation. The impacts by the lockdown imposed due to Covid-19 are intolerable to some people but a little kind help and emotional support can rescue them from going to suicide.
