Plot

Postcards follows the lives of four Nigerians in India. They are:

Bunmi: A businesswoman and socialite who has lived a fulfilling life since her husband's death twenty years prior, but despite her status on the Eko party circuit, she leads a lonely existence. After a fibroids diagnosis, she flies to Mumbai where she befriends Siddharth, an Indian surgeon. Fearing she will die in surgery, Bunmi yearns to make peace with Yemi, her estranged son with no solid career goals. Unbeknown to her, an Indian film producer has signed Yemi to appear in a Bollywood series after discovering his talent on video, and despite her close bond with Siddharth, Bunmi spends days pining for her only child.

Zainab: Siddharth's Nigerian wife, who has resolved never to have children, a decision her husband initially supported, but his change of heart causes conflict in their marriage. Despite her mother-in-law's disappointment and her friend Isioma's intervention, Zainab remains resolute in her stance, citing financial strain, career restraints, and societal prejudice against mixed-race children as her reasons.
