Director Statement

An important part of human life is time. It concerns him, it defines him. It all has to do with time running “Just like water” in combination with a life cycle that is constantly repeated.
The family is another important part in the course of his life. The place where he was born and raised. His place. His homeland.
I carry these precious pieces with me to this day. In my mind, in my soul, and on the screen.
