Director's Note
Is there more hopeful moment in our whole lives than the time when we love others? And is there more hopeful moment in the moment of love than the first time we meet each other? I have been caught by the thought of making such a movie that gives a vivid touch through those encounter in lonely and desolate situation.
Making this film, my key interest is a rhythmical deployment of sound. through which the internal dramatic completion could be achieved.
