A young man searching for the source of Eternal Youth, an old bookseller who knows the power of certain books, an enigmatic writer lost among the fogs of war and a woman who can read fate in stars. Alicia’s world has become a dream and, after having an accident, she is trapped in her own world, far away from home and her family. Alone, floating like a leaf lost in the middle of the space, she goes through the darkness, dreaming of coming back to her home, to her family, school and friends.
A story about dreams and dreamers. The girl who dreamed the sleeping beauty intertwines different stories in search of a single destiny. When everything becomes a dream, only the power of dreams can help us to find the way back home.
