It’s never easy to talk about mortality with our loved ones.

Synosis:
Two empty-nest elderly people face emotional barriers in their journey to find a nursing home and love. Visas become an obstacle to their emotions. As time passes by, beneath the seemingly calm life, there’s an underlying sense of unrest. Searching for a nursing home has become an important item on their schedule, with each visit feeling like an outing. Behind the warm atmosphere, however, lies a sense of helplessness. Where is the end point of their search?
