Moving On

“Nothing vanishes”

In a dreamlike, suspended setting, a melancholy-looking boy finds himself alone on a vast green plain along with a single wooden chair. There she is visited by an ethereal and aloof woman who embodies her memories and past. With the help of a recited poem, the woman attracts the protagonist’s “inner child,” a symbol of her childhood and her fragility. Despite the boy’s bitterness, the woman and the child take hands and choose to continue together into the unknown, leaving the protagonist alone to deal with his own emptiness and the need to vanish in order to finally move on.
