Directors Statement
It’s okay if you talk to a portrait. But if the portrait talks to you? I was inspired by the book "Choice" by the Hungarian-American psychologist Edith Eva Eger. In our lives, we are faced with a choice every second. It is not always a great or a fateful choice. And when we do not make it, it is also a choice. Is escape the right choice? And if the escape was the only right decision to save your life earlier, is it right to keep running away the rest of your life? Maybe it’s time to stop and look back? Isn’t running away from yourself now?
