Year and edition
2025 - August 2025

A documentary portrays a 91-year-old mother and literary researcher in her twilight years, living in a cramped room with everyday worries and simple human desires. Through this, it depicts the maternal bond, the affection and care of the child for their aging mother, and the fragile, precarious existence of people at the age when they are like "a lamp before the wind."
