James, a working class father, seeks nothing more than to make his 8 year old son happy by waving back at him from the morning train at the crossing, which he passes every morning on the way to school hoping for a response from a passenger. To do this for his son, James has to share a room in a hostel with an old stranger who tells him that the way he wants to help his child is nothing but deception and trickery. James, annoyed by the old strangers comments, oversleeps the next morning, and misses the train. However, when he gets back home, depressed, he finds his son overjoyed because a stranger waved back for the first time ever that morning: an old man.
