As We Approach (2024)
The film revolves around a young girl's diary, which is used as a narrative thread to show a couple at three different stages of gender intimacy: initial indulgence to disorientation and final exploration. Different emotional qualities, power relations and complexities in intimacy are presented. Ultimately, the story of self-moulding and self-extension is accomplished through this intimate relationship.
