Synopsis
A cabin sits on an isolated riverbank, facing a childhood island submerged after a dam's construction. The filmmaker spends four months in this setting, reflecting on memories of a place that has become invisible. Only the trees remain, standing like masts in the water. With two hens, a small vegetable garden, and a clock frozen at 11:36 and 23 seconds, the filmmaker documents a solitary experience reminiscent of Thoreau's Walden, capturing the essence of loss and memory.
