This film featuring Tilda Swinton was shot early 2024, in a abandoned camp of the Kew Thab Yang Forest Preserve in Chiang Rai. The artist made two versions filmed by different cameras, resulting in two expressions. The first version, filmed with a Digital Harinezumi pocket camera, reflects a personal interest in low-resolution imagery as well as memory blending experiments. The second version was filmed on 35mm and is concerned with a playful shot/reverse between Tilda and the shadows of leaves dancing on a nearby wall.
