In April 2020, during a time when meeting friends was forbidden, the director chose to film daily life without a specific purpose. He captures the simple joys of spending time with his daughter and wife, piecing together fragments to create a heartfelt letter to dear friends. The film received a Special Mention by the Young Jury at the Pesaro International Festival of New Cinema and was featured at the Yamagata International Documentary Film Festival and the International Short Film Festival Oberhausen.
