Martin goes to live in an isolated house in the French countryside. One night a man appears at the edge of the forest in front of the house. He invites Martin to lose himself ‘to meet a stranger’. Martin follows his advice and meets a director who is writing a film based on an unfinished novel by the Japanese author Haruki Murakami. But the man in the forest was the ghost of Haruki and Martin is going to become the protagonist of his ‘life at a distance’.
