Story

A feature length documentary and the true story of an adult filmmaker, who had to start his life all over again in his 30’s, after recollecting a repressed childhood memory; trying to figure out how to move on, at the same time, tracing back how he got here in the first place… 

Writer’s Vision

The feature documentary is not only about one’s personal life, but also a story about an entire generation feeling deceived by the system and everyone in it. This is a documentary about the promises never fulfilled. Promises by my close family, promises by the society, and especially promises made by cinema and art. This is a journey of a protagonist, simultaneously examined in 3 different perceptions of realities. “Trauma”, “Dreams” and “Cinema”. It’s the journey of the same 3 characters, in 3 different realities, in 3 different textures connected by one narrative.
