Director Statement

The film Enigma tells the story of a child who is in a dilemma while trying to understand his feelings after losing his mother. Enigma is a story about how humans instinctively move forward, bringing grief with them on their journey through life. The film aims to provide reflection and contemplation space for viewers who are dealing with loss, and help them understand that in grieving, there are no fixed rules or specific guidelines in expressing it, due to the highly personalized and situational nature of grief.
