What if the answers to life's biggest questions were already within your reach?
Three Questions follows the journey of a king who seeks wisdom to live the best possible life. He believes that if he can answer three questions-What is the right time to do things? Who are the most important people? What is the most important thing to do?-he'll never fail.
When philosophers and scholars fail to give him clarity, the king visits a humble hermit. What he learns through experience, rather than words, changes everything.
This modern adaptation brings Tolstoy's story into the present day with clear, thoughtful language while preserving the heart of its message-a call to live with awareness, compassion, and purpose.
