Director Statement
The film is about dependency, loss of control and trying to make the right decisions to become independent. There’s an appeal in the thought that it’s not important if you lead a life adapted to social standards or walk your path as an outcast. As long as you stay true to yourself and make your own choices, you are a free man. „Man is born free and everywhere is in chains.” (Jean-Jacques Rosseau).
