through the eyes of a small boy in a remote mountain village these

dreams of a "floating world'. A world of new possibilities,

facing both physical and emotional mountains but is taken in and
educated by the village scribe, a man named Waru. This man

Jiemba himself who sees his own path and climbs to great heights,
becoming esteemed as a brilliant innovator by a world that is hungry
for change.
