In the video, a person is holding a black leather-bound book. The book appears to be quite old, with a worn-out cover and a slightly frayed edge. The person is holding the book with both hands and turning it slowly to show the front and back covers. The book seems to be quite thick, with a hardcover that has a textured surface. The person's hands are visible, but their face is not shown in the video. The background is blurred, but it appears to be a room with some objects on a table.
