We were born and raised
Lenka Tam Nguyen / Czech Republic / 2022 / World Premiere / 5 min.
synopsis
Time is not linear, but rather a loop that has no beginning or end. Life doesn't move forward, but instead zigzags back and forth between what we want and what we’re meant to do. This is why sometimes we find ourselves at a crossroads in the middle of the night with nothing left but to ponder which of the three paths we must take as the rain washes down on us.“Whenever I take a look at myself, I always wish I loved myself more.”
