When Eliana - my best friend since childhood- told me that she had terminal cancer, I suggested that we make a film together. What seems like an attempt to abolish the rules of nature becomes an emotional journey that confronts us with our own fragility.
The camera goes from hand to hand as an instrument that unites adults and children, a companion and confidant that records the beauty of a cracking world. In the face of death, the meaninglessness of everyday life becomes transcendent, and love is revealed as the only thing that can sustain us.
