It was also selected as an official selection in the “COLORFUL WOLD” category at the Cambodia International Film Festival.

The style of the film is to depict the delicate psychological portrayal of the characters, while thoroughly acting with a sense of reality, as if the sadness, loneliness, and helplessness that people of today have are packed into the film as if they were being soaked in formalin. The film aims to visualize the “sadness” that cannot be captured.
