Director Statement

Some people are a permanent part of our being, psyche and reality. Even when they die, they are never truly gone. The movie tries to tap into these emotions and explore a transcendent connection between two sisters. Dolores, our main character is going through the hardest night of her life. She is trying to come to terms with the untimely and sudden passing of her sister, Hana. The immense grief summons Hana partially into this world and she tries to condole Dolores by passing napkins to her, but her sister does not notice this. Dolores's sorrow grows as she comes to the conclusion that perhaps she, as a physician, could have predicted the signs of Hana's impending stroke. This self-blame becomes the straw that breaks the camel’s back and Hanas’s spirit enters fully into our realm. Initially scared, Dolores manages to recognise her sister after she makes a typical hand gesture both of them used to make (two halves of a heart). The final, yet brief touch emphasises that Dolores understands that Hana will always be with her in a strange but comforting way.
