Director Statement

As we go further and further away, the distance is far away from the beginning.
As we go to the end, the way also leads us to the start.
We always talk about the beautiful time of youth when we are no longer younger. However, the memory of youth is becoming blurred, the world of youth is falling part. The film is talking about the youth/past we have gone through. Is it an “IT”? Does it want to disappear or exist? Is it willing to be forgotten? And also, question and doubt the existence of the missing time of youth.
