Description
A young boy's ordinary journey to the library becomes a strange and unsettling adventure. On his way home from school, he finds himself pondering the logistics of tax collection in the Ottoman Empire, leading him to the library. There, he discovers a mysterious 'reading room' beneath the library's maze-like structure, where he is imprisoned with an enigmatic old man and two other companions. As he tries to find a way out, he must navigate the surreal world he has entered.
