We live in a world where identity is often defined by work. Social media amplifies hustle culture, making early success feel like the ultimate goal. Like many in my generation, I’ve internalized the idea that to live your life, you must first build it. I often turn down moments of connection, believing that work takes priority. Yet, I wrestle with the thought: isn’t life itself the point? Why sacrifice the present for an uncertain future? This film explores the tension between ambition and living, reflecting my own struggle to balance building a better life with simply experiencing it.
