Director Statement

I believe VR has the power to visualize memory, re-create dreams, and connecting one another not only on a physical level, our five senses, but also on an emotional level, our feelings. 

Imagine instead of telling someone about an experience that I have, I can let them experience it themselves in VR. Whenever someone shares with me their childhood memory, I often wish that I could go back in time, be part of that story, and be able to feel the emotion resonated in their mind. I have always wanted to make a short film about family and childhood. What I want was not just to tell a story but also to convey a certain the emotion through the way the audience interpret the story in their mind.
