‘Sihina Sithuvam’ is a story of a bunch of school students at the peek of their adolescence, in the midst of changing platoons of life and age, their dreams, their expectations, their family life and of course the mischief, inherent in the mind and body of a dreamy Advanced Level student.
Nimekha and Nethmi grow up as sisters though Nethmi is an adopted child. Nethmi, who had lost her family during the 2004 tsunami, is adopted by a good-hearted couple. The Wijesundara couple too had also lost a child during the disaster.
Nimekha, the biological daughter of the Wijesundaras, detests Nethmi’s presence even though her parents persuade her to accept the other girl as one of their own in the family.
The sisters are doing their A/Levels in the Bio Section in the same school where encounter two roaring gangs of students.
The gang of Rishan, Vihanga, Shashikar and Charith belong to the rich, upper-middle class section of society. They are rich and stylish and have a huge fan following in school. Each of them despite being from the rich social circuit are troubled by problems at home. It’s either separated parents, a drunkard father or a working mother who have no time to spend with their children.
The other gang Kasun, Joseph, Tharindu and Pradeep are more simplistic with middle class upbringing. They too have issues personal to them arising out of domestic conflicts at home. But some of the boys in the gang are studious students who were taken into the prestigious school on the basis of scholarships.
The two groups just do not get along and this was the same even during they were in the lower classes.
With this conflict of ideas ’Sihina Sithuvam’ continues unravelling the hopes and the dreams younger generation despite many a problems they have to undergo.
