In three days, according to the plan, a monk's journey that has lasted over three years is supposed to come to an end. But hope is deceptive: "Heaven and Earth" twist the fate of the strong-willed yet sensitive man at the center of this historically accurate but fictional adventure narrative in such an immense way that he breaks apart. In the downfall of the old ways, not only does a completely new life concept unfold, but also - amidst death and life, happiness and suffering, love and hate - the tumultuous, boiling world of the 13th century that is undergoing profound change. Everything: happiness, power, faith, politics, and religion are redefined during these years. And climate change affects not only the weather and the mountains but in many ways almost all classes and strata - both the powerful and the powerless - of the known world. Yet in the void, what remains is decisive.
