Plot summary
Two women, Happiness and Worry, arrive to a small town. Happiness leaves a magic coat at the local restaurant, stating that anyone who wears it will have all their wishes fulfilled. The magic coat goes on to fulfill the wishes of a shy violin teacher; an old night watchman; Miki, a student; and a young blonde woman – all to little satisfaction.
