A once powerful, but now ailing and remorseful father desperately seeks out his estranged son. After exhausting all conventional resources, he reluctantly visits a mystic who offers to show him three visions of his son's life. At first suspicious, then curious, and ultimately captivated, he watches as a life unknown to him unfolds before his eyes. Each vision shows the son at a different age and at a different stage in his pursuit of his life long love, Isabelle. The old man discovers the surprising truth about his son and himself.
