Synopsis

“I have been forced to become more aware of the country and its borders than I have ever been before. During these days, I took a walk with my 0-year-old daughter and wondered what she was feeling as she saw different landscapes for the first time. I imagined a world where I existed and my loved ones did not. I imagined a world with loved ones and without me. One day, such a world will surely come. I want to be the landscape of my loved ones.” (ALIMO).
