A Karate Do instructor is victim of a violent street assault that sends him into a coma. While unconscious he has a near death experience where he finds the profound happiness that eludes him on this earth. Reluctant to return to his body he is granted one of his most unattainable dreams: to meet the founder of Karate Do, Gichin Funakoshi Sensei, a figure who has had a remarkable impact on his life, deceased then for 41 years. His dialogues with the Master will have a profound personal effect and great influence on his spiritual renewal.
