Praying for Rain
Robert Lewis Vaughan
Painted Rain
by Janet Allard
Synopsis
Painted Rain explores the relationship between two boys in an orphanage, on the verge of being separated by adoption.
The younger boy, an energetic non-conformist, tries desperately to draw out his older roommate, who is an aspiring painter confined to a wheelchair that he refuses to relinquish for leg braces.
Both boys strive to live life the way they want to live it and make their own choices, despite the external pressures and expectations of a well-meaning social worker.
As the impending separation nears, these two “almost brothers” struggle to break through their alienation and isolation to find companionship and connection.
