Two stories. One set in Paris in the 1880s in a small room inhabited by a tormented artist seeking his inspiration from Japanese art.
Another story is set in after an chemical blast in a city in modern-day China. Two environmental scientists work to chart the reclamation of a deserted city. Both stories are connected by a love of art. Especially in troubled times, art can heal, lift the spirit and reach into our humanity.
