Director‘s Statement:
I have tried to leave something in the world through images, but the impermanence of the medium itself is a constant reminder that nothing can be preserved forever. The things we try to find, the memories we try to preserve, they will all eventually turn into nothingness. Many people may think this is too pessimistic, but I believe that only by truly understanding and facing the nature of things that will eventually pass away can we realize who we really are, and the reason and value of our existence.
