Through Europe, down into Africa, across Asia, Australia, the United States and South America, they searched for the elders of the human race. Travelling with only what they could carry, they laid themselves open to a series of extraordinary encounters. They heard wonderful stories, received precious advice and even discovered the secret of long life. And gradually their journey took on a new dimension...
