Reviews
“I film the landscapes where I used to walk with my father. Before and after his death, I walked and filmed a lot there. When he passed away, I felt abandoned. The landscape where I once felt at home became a dark place. At one point, I dared not continue walking; I felt in danger, there were too many memories there.”
