Baaram is a stark social drama set in rural Tamil Nadu, exploring the grim practice of thalaikoothal—a form of involuntary euthanasia for the elderly. The story follows Karuppasamy, an injured watchman who becomes dependent on his family, only to face betrayal when his nephew deems him a burden. Through its raw narrative, the film questions the morality of tradition and the value of life in struggling rural communities
