An older woman lives close to nature but far from people. Her only interactions are with her dog and a young woman. Based on a very simple narrative, this short film contains images of mesmerizing beauty that tell us a story that goes beyond the story.

The thesis of the film seems to be that it doesn’t matter what kind of powers you have, its the way you use them, which is good for the warm and fuzzies.
