A documentary immersion into all things Eco, a tour of Umberto Eco's private library, guided by the author himself. Combining new footage with material he shot with Eco in 2015, the film documents this incredible collection and the man who amassed it. As Eco leads us among the volumes and his family reflects on his legacy, we also gain insight into the mind of this prolific and original thinker.
