About the theme:
The strange and unpredictable period of the coronavirus pandemic(COVID-19) reminds us that humans need empathy with each other more than ever. It taught us that we should not have a pocket full of money to help each other or to put a smile on each other’s lips, we just need a heart filled with Mutual understanding, sympathy, and compassion. With this movie, I want to convey the beautiful and exceptional feeling of helping each other and empathy to the viewers and to remind them that to experience this phenomenon we don’t need extraordinary capital and ability, we just need to change our perspective a little with a kind heart.
