Sweater Whether
A middle aged Assamese widower navigates grief while trying to move on from the death of his beloved wife, and managing his strained relationship with a young daughter who wants to leave the city to go study at the same college in Delhi, where her late mother studied. This tale takes us through the good, bad and ugly parts of mourning and how different members of the same family go about it, mostly through reminiscing, tears, and questionable coping mechanisms. The daughter convinces her father to have a yard sale as the ultimate "move on". The reluctantly onboard father, discovers that love comes in different forms, and sometimes moving on is giving away the sweater which was a gift from your dead wife to a pair of young lovers who remind you of a younger you: in love and hopeful about the future.
