Overview
In 2023, filmmaker Taro Spirig traveled through China. He filmed himself and the people he encountered, hoping to capture something of their existence. A year later, Spirig saw footage of his late grandfather that his mother had shot. When he saw the love and grief in every frame, the director realized that this was what really mattered. The traces his grandfather left behind can be found in his mother's films.
