UK Premiere! In 2025, the film won the Alternative – Mystery of Souls – Experimental Award at the International Film Festival The Hague.Albert Einstein wrote in 1955, following the death of a close friend: “The distinction between past, present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.” This quote resonates deeply with the philosophical core of the film.
The story follows Rebecca, a ceramic artist, on an intimate, spiritual journey across four different timelines.
In the present, doctors in a Parisian hospital are fighting to save Rebecca’s life. These scenes are raw, immediate, and painfully real. As she drifts between consciousness and unconsciousness, her memories pull her back to the events leading up to the tragic car accident—an impulsive kiss, a chain of consequences, a loss. Rebecca carries her pregnancy in silence, keeping this secret to herself - loses her unborn child… and eventually, her own life.
The other two timelines explore alternate futures—visions of what might have been. In one, the baby is born and she stays with François; in another, she has the child but chooses a new path, leaving behind her former life. These futures are not answers, only possibilities. What if…?
Guiding her through this inner landscape is a mysterious figure: the Witch of the East Wind. He appears as a puppet, but he is much more—Rebecca’s conscience, her inner angel. He does not judge. He observes, prompts, and gently leads Rebecca to her own revelations—acceptance, responsibility, and ultimately, forgiveness.
The film purposely withholds key information, revealing it gradually to engage the viewer in a slow emotional and psychological unraveling. Through poetic visuals and a meditative tone, it offers space for each viewer to reflect personally. It is not a story that dictates, but one that invites the audience to embark on their own emotional journey.
