If the reality of a record comes from an actual life, if a memory can be attached to a piece of land, I can associate it with onekind of story--a story about growing. It always appears in history gradually, and is washed away by history itself. Everyone has their won highlights, climaxes, pain and happiness while growing. However, there is a certain kind of fate hiding there as well.

Maybe I can dedicate this film as a birthday present to my child in twenty years. I can tell him a story about a family, a story about a land, and a story about our family, because this story is from my mother, who is his grandmother.
