A young woman composes a letter to herself. Laying bare her fear, loneliness and desire, she embraces her fragmented reality in a beautiful and audacious act of kindness.

Striking animation that transforms in bold and unexpected ways sweeps us into the mysterious labyrinths of memory, feeling and fantasy. Produced as part of her studies at the Satyajit Ray Film & Television Institute (SRFTI), Suchana Saha’s gorgeous short premiered at the 2023 International Film Festival Rotterdam (IFFR).
