Synopsis

Eternity: Things happening repeatedly in life.

1) Birth – The beginning of everything.

2) Development – As roots grow, humans grow from Mother Nature.

3) Violence – Domestic and worldwide, brutality that is repeated across human history.

4) The Power of the Pyramid – The caste system and slavery from the past can somehow still be seen in life.

5) Lightness and Heaviness – Yin and Yang, the positive and negative.

6) Imagination – Experience, knowledge, consciousness and unconsciousness, dreams.

7) Emotions – Happiness, anger, sadness, and depression.


Director's Comment

The questions of human life (what, why, how, from where, to where) have always been present in my thoughts. I imagined human life as it is perceived by God, focusing on the special moments that are repeated in life. This helped me to gain a deeper understanding of myself as a human being. All life must ultimately come to an end, but human beings have the illusion that they will live forever. Perhaps it is because we don’t know how long our lives will last. The truth made me feel afraid. Like mice running on wheels, all people can have similar experiences in their lives. I wanted to express this universality through the symbolism of poetry.
