Emotionally adrift and uncertain about his future, Han unexpectedly meets Jeff, a master luthier who has dedicated his life to the meticulous craft of building guitars. Though the two come from vastly different worlds generationally, culturally, and in life experience they form an unlikely bond through their shared appreciation for music and craftsmanship. As Han spends more time in Jeff's workshop, learning not only how to build instruments but also how to listen to wood, to silence, and to himself he begins to reconnect with his own sense of purpose. Jeff, too, is quietly transformed by the presence of someone who sees meaning in his life's work. Their relationship, built on small gestures and mutual respect, becomes a refuge from the noise of external pressures. Woody Duet is a meditative, emotionally resonant coming-of-age film that explores how mentor-ship and human connection can offer healing and direction during times of personal crisis. It's a story about finding meaning not through achievement, but through relationships, authenticity, and the imperfect beauty of life itself. See less
