The film was written in the half-year following my father’s passing. Starring my mother as the lead, this fragmented narrative delves into the transformative nature of grief. How does grief alter one’s understanding of the world? What recurring anxieties does it bring to the foreground? The auto-fictional script was based both on dreams I had during that time, and on psychological and philosophical theories of how people and cultures respond to the concept of death.
