Tear Is The Bluest Sea

(in post production)

LOGLINE

A color-blind painter and his lover plan to kill themselves with hopes to reconnect in the paradise cinema of death.

There are always stories comparing life to a big tree growing, I think this is really not right, instead of saying that life is a growth from 0 - positive infinity, death will become negative; why don't we understand it the other way around, people are negative when they are alive, only after death is a big tree, and for me, this big tree is the cinema, where people will understand each other and cherish each other.

The impermanence of life, the impermanence of death, the impermanence of love

DIRECTOR STATEMENT

Make it stand out.

  • DREAM

    Everything has to start from a childhood memory, I live in a city where you can not see the sea, in a trip, the return trip I used a plastic bottle full of "blue" seawater home, in the car, too sleepy, I fell asleep clutching the bottle.

  • STILL

    Later I woke up and found that the bottle was filled with transparent water, I cried out, my tears flowed into the cup along the mouth, the liquid mixed together, at that moment I could not distinguish between tears and seawater

  • RECALL
