Anhedonia

When Kino Warren, a weary musician, learns that his mentor is nearing death, he sets off on a cross-country trek by foot, venturing into a mysterious realm known as “the territory.” Kino is convinced that his mentor will not pass away until he reaches him. Unbeknownst to Kino, a group of individuals, each with their own malicious or political motives, is pursuing him. They are after the sole existing recording of the most extraordinary piece of music ever composed—a creation by his mentor that is said to have the power to erase all pain for its listeners. This recording is in Kino’s possession, though he is completely unaware of it.
