Film Description:
Can you remember the last time you looked deeply into the eyes of someone dear to you? Perhaps a good friend? Or your little sister? Often, we pass by each other without truly being seen. Receiving genuine attention, being truly seen, can be challenging. By looking into someone’s eyes, we are confronted with the other person’s feelings and may recognize something in ourselves: sadness, love, loneliness, pain. At the same time, this can also bring a lot of liberation. What do I recognize in you that I see in myself? To what extent are our feelings and needs similar when we truly give each other the chance to be seen?
