A boy's record of his journey reaches an adult who has come to a standstill
Synopsis
No spoilers
Unable to make things go as he hopes at work or at home, Alex has lost hope in his daily life. In a park filled with memories, he meets fourteen-year-old Saeed. The boy has been traveling to visit nine sages and is waiting for the last one. With permission, Alex begins reading 『賢者の書』, in which Saeed recorded what he learned on his journey. As he follows Saeed's experiences with possibility, goals, self-esteem, gratitude, and more, he considers whether there might be another way to choose how he lives after coming to a standstill.
