The late Dr. Jane Goodall narrates the titular poem by E.E. Cummings, in which a man named "anyone" and a woman named "no one" develop a profound love connection within their bucolic but increasingly alienated community. The film features illustrations inspired by Cummings’ own impressionistic paintings, and its soundtrack is the final, acclaimed recording of the maestro Yakov Kreizberg.

“Kreizberg’s film is an exuberant experience to behold. It’s stunning to see how this filmmaker has mounted a film that speaks so much to our loneliness, our passion, and our connection.”
