Director’s Note

This film is a contemplation on the temporary space we inhabit. All the characters wander between what must be left behind and what must be reached, hoping that something fulfilling awaits them on the other side of the threshold. Every whistle, gesture and silence in this film is marked by this impermanence. It is a personal exploration of the fact that all our shared moments are fleeting, and that our time together, no matter how profound, is always, at its core, finite. It’s something strangely beautiful.
