The author's note

This film was meant to address how people deal with similar situations or worse ones, for example, when someone gets sick after many healthy and beautiful years. How would we react? Would we be strong enough? Would we find the courage to deal with this situation? How far would be willing to go?

As long as we are perfectly healthy, we never have to ask ourselves that kind of question. However, we should never forget that for each of us, everything can fall apart in just one day.
