Overview
Long Distance
A young woman living in a modern metropolis has recently entered into a long-distance relationship. She feels lost and alone in her new situation and swings between melancholy, frustration, hope and excitement. As time passes, she attempts to connect with her partner, or rather with her own idea of him, through different means of technology. After an unsuccessful final attempt to arrange a rendezvous, she acknowledges that she must let go and finds solace by being present in the real world.
