Man in the Long Black Coat

Overview

Inspired by the Bob Dylan song of the same name, 'the Man in the Long Black Coat' tells the story of a young woman in an abusive relationship living in a small town. She sees a mysterious stranger, 'hangin' around at the old dance hall on the outskirts of town.' As her life spirals out of her control, she finds solace in the stranger's company. She must choose to leave the life she knows and escape into the arms of the man in the long black coat before her husband takes even that choice from her.
