1000 Journals Plot Summary and Details

Plot

In the mid-2000s, an odd and historically unique event transpired in San Francisco. A gentleman from the City by the Bay who referred to himself, simply, as 'Someguy,' decided to send out 1,000 blank, hand-stamped and individually-numbered journals, via post, on separate journeys around the world. He asked each recipient of one of the volumes to imbue that particular book with his or her personal designations - observations, reflections, poems, photographs and other assorted ephemera indicative of the journal's resting place and owner at that particular time. Each individual, in turn, sent his or her book to another person, and so on, and so forth - until documentarist Andrea Kreuzhage caught wind of the plan. Kreuzhage's film, One Thousand Journals, documents her own global search for the remaining texts, as she jaunts from country to country, city to city and lead to lead, and meets the books' unique and individualistic final owners.
