The inspiring global movement about fresh starts, human connection, and the love of books.
Tucked away in Tokyo's Jimbocho lies a bookworm's dream come true. Nestled in an ancient wooden structure on a peaceful corner is a store brimming with hundreds of used books.
Despite the fact that her family has owned the Morisaki bookstore for three generations, Takako, 25, has never been a reader. Her uncle Satoru, who has dedicated his life to the bookstore since his wife Momoko left him five years before, is proud and happy about it.
Takako unwillingly accepts her eccentric uncle's offer to live rent-free in the small room above the business after learning that her fiancé is getting married to someone else. With the intention of healing her heartache peacefully, Takako is taken aback to discover whole new realms among the piles of books that line the Morisaki bookstore.
As summer turns into fall, Satoru and Takako find they are more alike than they had imagined. Both of them may learn valuable lessons about life, love, and the curative effects of books from the Morisaki bookstore.
