The short film is a quiet, subjective documentation, primarily from the point of view of the grandmother of the house, of a past, an age gone by which has left several relics in its wake. Whether it's in the form of something tangible like old posters or toys, or something more intimate and unquantifiable like memories, both become equally important components of the whole that is life.
All of this is allowed to unfold against the backdrop of a very practical event rooted in the present - the experience of shifting houses during a pandemic. This, in turn, allows the entire narrative to offer an adequately balanced portrayal of the lived reality of its subjects.
