"The imagination as capacity of the memory is the key phrase of this film. The concept of 'home', which is the central theme, encloses issues that are highly complex in this respect. We all have contradictory feelings: we want to go home but, at the same time, we don't want to. I would like to explore nostalgia for the imaginary home when one is far away and what it means to come back when that home is not the same as we remembered it. I would like this film to make the audience remember their own imaginary home with its memories."
