CONATUS (2024)

Soyeong, a woman with a disability, harbors a nightly dream: performing on stage. In her imagination, she dances effortlessly in a "normal" body, yet remains wary of praise. Her dance teacher, Heejeong, guides her through movements, encouraging her to chase her aspirations. Their shared performance is a cherished moment, but the following day brings a return to Soyeong's ordinary life. As she begins documenting her experiences, we embark on a journey alongside her, through changing seasons and flowing waters, towards an unknown destination.
