“Met oordeelloze regie, biedt de filmmaker ons als kijker de kans om een voor velen onopgemerkte wereld te betreden. Het toont het spel tussen hoop en reddeloosheid in al haar vormen en laat op een subtiele wijze zien hoe generationeel trauma hierbij een rol speelt. Deze documentaire heeft ons als jury diep geraakt. Scenes als de kwetsbaarheid van de moeder en het stelen van kussens zullen ons nog voor lange tijd bijblijven”

Note from the artist: My first ever music video released today. It is about my struggle with admitting when the day is done and giving in to my exhaustion. How when the sun sets I desperately cling to the last scraps of light through phones, tv screens and other artificial light to stay awake.
