In the back room of an Oxford pub, legendary authors J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis meet for what turns out to be the last time. After a season of estrangement, the literary giants reconnect and debate themes that connect their work: faith, myth, sacrifice, and the power of story. But underneath the intelligence and humour is a strained conversation that navigates their uncommon friendship and unresolved disagreements. A meditation on friendship, loss and reconciliation.
