This adaptation of Patricia Highsmith's novel The Price of Salt set in New York of 1950s has two women from diverse backgrounds falling in love. The time was obviously not conducive to public outpourings, the conventions of those days were not receptive and the many hurdles they have to put up with render the continuance of their love story almost impractical. But the two women in the centre of the storm have to dig deep within themselves to stay true to their hearts.
