The story

What Is Damejin About?

The premise of Damejin without spoilers.

An off‑beat comedy follows three so‑called ‘damejin’—people who refuse to work and spend their days aimlessly. After hearing that one can live without a job in India, they decide to fund a trip by any means except honest labor, from stealing stamps off letters to planning a robbery of a bankrupt bank. Their absurd misadventures underscore their lazy quest for an Indian paradise where work is optional.
