Director‘s Statement:
Everyone is its own small, lonely planet. It is only with some luck and chance do we wind up together in the same orbit, traveling in the same direction regardless of time spent together, long or short. When we finally part ways at the end of our journey, we say “take care of yourself” before we return to our own separate paths. Three stories, same female heroine, same scenery and at the same time. But due to the slight changes in the universe, she experienced three different but wonderful journeys. These journeys in turn helped her grow as a person. With my sincere and deepest respect to the Eric Rohmer, I hope my film can demonstrate the light, warm, private and controlled side of “life’s uncertainties” through the eyes of a young woman.
