出不去的圖書館，無盡的夜，男孩醒來，遇見四個同樣被困著的人，似曾相識卻也感到陌生，他們排練起一齣顯然不會有觀眾，名為「等待鋼琴家的時光」的話劇。在荒謬台詞和動作中，有人執著於戲的完成，有人迷惑於演的意義，有人甚至相信，鋼琴師的現身會改變一切。然而，卻無人追究為何會走入這異境……。

全片於早稻田大學國際文學館（村上春樹圖書館）拍攝，接續著以同名小說為啟發的開幕紀念短片《圖書館奇譚》，延伸其噩夢、幻想、孤獨的特質，並加入更多村上印象與元素，以及貝克特「等待果陀」之概念。編導七里圭對於空間與劇場的獨到見解，也讓影片融合疫情時期的幽閉恐懼，並呈現出圖書館最根本難解的神秘處：寫作、閱讀，連結兩者間不可思議的互動。靈感、真理、缺席、死亡，究竟是開啟故事的光，還是傳達心靈的影？堪稱村上春樹信徒的資格考、狂熱讀者的腦力賽。

Beyond the glass, a night that never dawns. The automatic doors work just fine, yet for some reason, it isn’t possible to leave... Shunsuke awakes to find himself trapped. The building is familiar, as are certain of his fellow “prisoners”—members of his old university theater club. Despite the irrationality of their plight, the group begins rehearsing a play…

This film is based on a short film produced to commemorate the opening of the Murakami Haruki Library (The Waseda International House of Literature), and has been completed as a theatrical release (director's cut) version.

穿過時光，起伏如浪的簷，沉入知識想像之海。女孩看見架上櫛次鱗比的小小人形，到了夜裡，她化為影子，人形變成男孩，心靈的那盞光遊走其間，但觸手可及的距離，卻始終無法相通。為村上春樹圖書館開館典禮創作之作，援引村上於安徒生文學獎致詞時的「影子」概念，並充分利用建築師隈研吾設計的建築細節，展現村上作品如隧道迷宮般的光影夢幻。    

A young woman’s shadow appears in a library at night, where it happens upon the frozen figure of a young man. His romantic interest thus sparked, the figure’s heart becomes a light which floats about the space in playful pursuit of the woman’s shadow.
