If We Ever Forgot
2025
In a fading seaside city, a forgotten notebook becomes the unlikely thread connecting two lives. One, burdened by the weight of their memories, fills its pages with raw emotions about lost time and fractured dreams before discarding it. The other, driven by curiosity, discovers the notebook and sets out on a journey to trace the stories it holds. Through its pages, a haunting reminder echoes: “If the whole world forget, never forget. If the whole world forgive, never forgive. Gone, but never forgotten.” As their paths unknowingly cross in shared spaces, both must confront whether to remain anchored in their histories or let go and move forward. A poetic exploration of memory, loss, and renewal, “If We Ever Forgot” asks: can we ever truly leave the past behind?
