The video is a composition of horizontal lines; the screen is split into three parts. The middle part is a shot of my family eating lunch in a restaurant, layered with two frames. Mix in one the eating and the speaking creates a multiple image that grasps varied psychological states of each person around the table. A close up face image of the same people is seen on both sides, slow down in time. In one moment the cycle of the shot is cut, the camera goes under the table where a different world is been discovered. The video explores the relationship between the people in side the family cell.
