Growing up, the New Year always arrived with a blanket of white snow. As a child, I eagerly awaited the holiday, not just for the festive atmosphere, but because it meant a table full of delicious food we rarely had otherwise. The cold air was filled with warmth and anticipation, and every bite tasted like a celebration. Those snowy, simple days remain some of my most cherished memories—a time when joy was found in the smallest things, and family gathered close against the winter chill.

This short film is a personal tribute to my childhood, spent mostly at my grandmother's home. I recall the joy of lowering a rope from our fifth-floor apartment to buy fried dough sticks from a street vendor below. The film recreates about 70% of my grandmother's home, capturing the warmth and nostalgia of those days. As I grew older, visits became rare, and my grandmother aged. This piece is my way of reconciling with the past, holding onto memories, and keeping her close. The grandmother in the film is my real grandmother, and I'm grateful for her cameo. I hope this story resonates with you, and I invite you to share your own meaningful memories.
