The entirety of the story is the protagonist, Shini’s monologue, as she reflects on the idea of memory and the passage of time. Central to the narrative is a camera, which comes to play an important role in all of this.

As Shini watches other people disregard her presence, until she eventually forces them together within the same frame, a memory is frozen in time. In the process, the film further becomes a rumination on an important contrast between the past and the present, a contrast that pertains not simply to the protagonist, but also, and very visibly so, to her surroundings. The same is achieved with visuals that show skill, and a screenplay that supports it in the same manner.
