About this submission

I've always been fascinated by the themes of death & grief and how we as humans have our own experiences of it. I decided to make this film after thinking about the dreams my parents and I had about our relatives who recently passed away, and how we each had similar dreams of them visiting us. I thought about how my grandfather was alone after my grandmother passed, and the sense of loneliness he must've felt. I made a film that felt cathartic to anyone who has lost someone close to them and I hope it brings closure.
