In a remote village, Tenyan, a middle-aged villager, believes his life is inseparably tied to an ancient, sacred tree-an enduring symbol of faith and destiny. But when modernization arrives in the form of a railroad project threatening to uproot the tree, Tenyan’s devotion pushes him toward choices that challenge morality, belief, and the fragile boundary between right and wrong.
