Director Statement

There was a period in my life when I was deeply drawn to nostalgia. During that time, I felt an urge to make a film about homesickness.

I kept thinking about how to express that overwhelming desire and impossibility of returning to the beauty of the past, and I found an unexpected parallel in the idea of infidelity. Both carry a fragile relationship with the outside world and contain a kind of devastating beauty.I came to feel that infidelity and nostalgia share the same kind of melancholy—a longing tinged with ruin.
