Liberal Arts

Jesse Fisher, a 35-year-old freshly single man, finds himself stuck in a rut, disenchanted with his uninspiring job and fearing that the best years of his life are already behind him. Despite losing himself in books to escape his monotonous reality, he can't shake the feeling that life continues to move forward, beckoning him to reengage. His inner turmoil compels him to accept an invitation from his favorite college professor to return to campus and speak at the professor's retirement dinner.

Upon stepping back into the familiar world of college life, Jesse anticipates a wave of nostalgia—revisiting the dining halls, dorm rooms, lively parties, and intimate poetry seminars that once ignited his passion. However, what catches him off guard is meeting Zibby, a vibrant and intellectually gifted sophomore with a passion for classical music. Her youthful energy and enthusiasm contrast sharply with Jesse's current state, stirring emotions and long-suppressed desires he had believed were lost to time.

Zibby's presence challenges Jesse to reconsider his stagnant outlook on life. Through their unexpected connection, he begins to rediscover a sense of possibility and human connection that reignites his spirit. This transformative experience opens Jesse up to new adventures and perspectives, proving that it's never too late to find inspiration and hope in the most surprising places.
