In the first scene of the film, the characters in the story enter a child's dream, trying to return to their childhood by looking for strange and familiar memory images in the dream. The film starts with the director's private memories. The still images come from the images and old films taken by the director back in the village where he lived in his childhood. Through the interpenetration of memories in dreams and the present, it explores how "people" deal with trauma at the psychological level.
