Award-Winning Short Film
A contemplative visual poem about memory, mortality, and the fragile traces we leave behind. Through fragmented moments from childhood and adulthood, Adrift explores the distance between what we remember and what remains.
Driven by atmosphere rather than dialogue, the film invites audiences into a dreamlike journey where meaning is never fixed and every image becomes a question.
