Synopsis
Twice the river has claimed this village—was it trying to be forgotten, or forced to forget? Can generations of trauma ever truly fade? Its golden age ended before the war; now, visitors arrive only to confront the end. Stagnation seeps into everything, and work alone holds meaning. Without it, is there anything left—thought the human, or the bee? Shot on 16 mm.
