The Journey To The East

Description

This story follows H.H., a member of “The League”—a timeless, secret sect of artists, musicians, and philosophers (including real and fictional figures like Mozart, Plato, and Don Quixote).

The group embarks on a pilgrimage to “the East” in search of ultimate truth. However, the journey falls apart in a Swiss mountain gorge after the disappearance of their humble servant, Leo. Years later, H.H. realizes that the failure of the journey was not due to the servant’s disappearance, but his own loss of faith. It is a kaleidoscopic meditation on the nature of spiritual seeking, the relationship between the leader and the servant, and the act of artistic creation itself.
