All he wanted was to see her just once. He was from a village in the backwoods. She was the girl next door, his lost love. He came from his small village to the big city of Kolkatta, but his pockets were empty. He needed a job for his living and something more for his soul. He hoped he could get both. On a wet afternoon, he found his way to her house. They relieved their past with their thoughts and buried the present with their words.
Raincoat is a story of small town hopes and the insidious corruption of the big city. It is also the story of how love can hold out despite all odds rising to surprising acts of selflessness. Of how one afternoon can prove to be greater than a lifetime.
