Everyone is living a life by oneself while in an infinite white space. One’s environment is created based on one’s deepest memories.
After an unknown amount of time, one starts to forget.
The white space exists while doing nothing, or is it actually doing everything? What can one do?

One is my graduation film from Emily Carr University of Art&Design. The initial idea came when I was sitting in a small room at the American embassy in Vancouver, waiting to be called and issued an American visa. People from different nations and cultures waiting in the same room, co-existing while not communicating, made me wonder if the after-death world is just something similar.
