Letters to a Young Traveller

A father and son set out on a trip to the Balmoral Art Institute. The father seeks a job for himself, but also hopes to convince the director to offer a residency to his son, an aspiring composer. The father faces competition from a hostile man, while his son is appalled by the Institute and leaves.

He writes letters to his son to express his deepest thoughts. As the days and months go by, and his time at the Institute drags on, the father starts to lose his sense of identity.
