Fallen Leaf Observation Manual

A young man encounters Lu Mingyuan, a terminally ill patient, in a park. Through daily conversations on the bench, he gradually understands the nature of life and death. Lu Mingyuan relied on Camus' "The Myth of Sisyphus" as his spiritual support. In the last days of his life, he used notebooks to record traces of tiny life forms such as fallen leaves, birds, and insects, sublimating ordinary observations into poetic resistance to existence. When he died, the observation diary and philosophical reflections he left behind completely changed the way the narrator viewed the world.
