Synopsis
A thirty-something director, disillusioned from his world of fabricated imagery on top of his trivial everyday life, wanders around his home town. He has a strange encounter with a young girl who performs a ritual by repeating "tomorrow is my birthday" everyday. In trying to communicate with her through his video camera, the man also performs his own healing ritual on the lonely girl and himself.
