The story is set in a remote village of Manipur. The film is about eight kids who are really interested in playing football. The kids are from poor families and ends up playing pomelo since they can't afford to buy a real football. They save money bit by bit, and manage to buy a football with the help of Thambou (Raju Nong), driver of an old model jeep which shuttles between town areas and the village. Thambou, seeing the interest of the kids, help them in every possible way he can, to make their dreams come true. On one hand, the romance between Thambou and Thaja (Abenao Elangbam), and between Thanou (Gokul Athokpam) and Thoibi (Ranjana) provides the film a different taste. The film also shows the negligence of the government employees who are posted in remote villages of Manipur and child kidnapping for forced labour.

This film is the second production of The Second Millennium Mongoloids after producing the blockbuster film Meera Memcha.

R.K. Bidur wrote in e-pao.org, "Making an enterprising team with Suresh Hidang, producer-writer-lyricist, Y. Kumarjit, screen playwright, Hodam Tommy and K. Boong, cinematographer and editor, O.Geet, music director etc., he comes up with a non-conventional film-Nobap. The plight of rural folks and eight kids in desperate need of football, but unable to afford one, kicking Nobap instead-are all well expressed in a comprehensible visual language. The film is skilfully intercut with humorous romantic interludes-Thambou and Thaja; Thanou and Thoibi.

Nobap is not a story that somebody tells you just to make you feel sorry for the poor people, it has other meaning and a shot's meaning can go very far beyond the subject. The film would have been better if a few sequences, such as apparent abduction of Thambou and child kidnapping for forced labour had been trimmed. They are neither sensibly treated nor developed as meaningful sub-plot.

★★★ : One for story-screenplay, one for sincerity and realistic attempt at the film making, one for eight frolicsome kids." [5]
