Chinese Days poster
NR

After years of delay, a long-planned journey finally begins. The filmmaker imposes a quiet rule: only one shot per day. This self-imposed rhythm becomes a daily ritual of observation, recording, and reflection. What emerges is a filmed diary—a chronicle of wonder that maps both external landscapes and internal states. Each image carries a lingering question: what does it mean to continue making films? Through unfamiliar territories, filmmaking transcends documentation to become an act of presence and an attempt to rediscover meaning. The result is a meditation on cinema itself—its persistence, solitude, and transformative power over the everyday.
