Private Project

the quiet of waiting

The film delves into a sense of being stuck and falling behind while searching for purpose and direction in an overwhelming, fast-paced world. It highlights the internal conflict between striving for progress and questioning whether it is time to pause and reflect. The narrative captures feelings of inadequacy, uncertainty, and being caught in a liminal space, as if still waiting for the story to truly begin. Through this experience, new perspectives gradually emerge.
