Description

Phileas Fogg is a meticulous, unflappable English gentleman whose life revolves around routine and quiet confidence. A member of the Reform Club, he spends his evenings debating abstract ideas while keeping a tight schedule. One rainy evening, a daring wager is placed: he will circle the globe in exactly eighty days, and the odds spark a quiet fire of determination.

He quickly hires the exuberant French valet, Passe‑partout, whose boundless energy balances Fogg’s stoic precision. With a steamship ticket, a railway pass, and a modest purse, they set off from London, confronting unfamiliar customs, unpredictable weather, and a relentless police inspector who suspects foul play. As the first leg of their journey stretches across Europe and into the Middle East, every minute counts toward the impossible deadline.
