For anyone looking at this, basically, an event propels an English man with a connection to China to get on a plane with others that are headed East. The plane crashes and lands who knows where (near Tibet?). People are confused, upset, but manage to navigate their way to a paradise well concealed in the mountains called Shangri-La. Shangri-La is not on the map, and not a word is hardly ever mentioned of it in the world, if at all. How can this be? Yet this place has everything a person needs, and is well cultured too, containing objects from all over the world, even obscure items from the West, like a bathtub from Ohio. However, feelings of upset and confusion persist among the group: What is going on? What are we doing here? But the monk-like peaceful residents of Shangri-La seem to be hunky dory. Ultimately, the crowd is presented with a choice by Shangri-La's recluse leader, stay forever or leave, but please make a decision. Is this place what is seems to be?(less)
