Description
Raimund Gregorious's life is one of quiet routine. A respected Latin professor, he is well-respected in his field, but perhaps a little predictable. That all changes when he encounters a beautiful, distraught woman on a stormy morning.
Her appearance sets him on a path of self-discovery, as he becomes increasingly restless and unsure of himself. He finds solace in the words of a lesser-known Portuguese writer, Amadeo de Prado, whose prescient words seem to echo his own sense of discontent. With a newfound sense of restlessness, Raimund boards a night train to Lisbon, embarking on a journey that will take him across Europe and deep within himself.
As he travels, he begins to question everything he thought he knew about himself and the world around him. Will he find what he's searching for, or will his journey lead him further away from his desired destination?
