Plot 35 is a place that was never mentioned in my family; it is where my elder sister, who died aged three, is buried.

It was to make up for the missing images that I decided to make this film. Thinking that I would simply chronicle a forgotten life, in fact I opened up the hidden door to a past that I was unaware of, to the subconscious memory that lies inside each of us and who makes us what we are.
