Can books really change people's lives? Avi, who graduated from Harvard University, went from being a model student to being abandoned by fate because of his withdrawn personality. One day, Avi accidentally saw a recruitment notice for a prison librarian. At a low point in his life, he suddenly had a whim and longed to find the meaning of life from this place that represented destruction and dreams. The documentary story was unanimously praised by dozens of media outlets including the Boston Globe, San Francisco Chronicle, and The Economist. Author: "This experience is as important to my education and to me as Harvard University." The faces of all living beings in the prison library are portraits of the lives of dozens of real prisoners. The real version of "The Shawshank Redemption", "I want to take off my shackles and embrace the light."
