This film is an adaptation of Jay Parini's novelised memoir of the same name. It tells the true story of Parini (Fionn Whitehead), a young and ambitious St Andrews student who meets Argentine writer, translator, and essayist Jorge Luis Borges (Luis Gnecco) visiting the town. When Parini is tasked with caring for his new-found blind companion, the unexpected duo embark on an odyssey through the Scottish Highlands in Parini's car, who describes the sights of the landscape to Borges.
