Inside Groove
During Anna's routine visit to her grandfather’s nursing home, her relationship with him momentarily evolves from something silent, disconnected and seemingly stagnant to something more through the sweet exchange of a smile. Her desire for this kind of closeness is projected through her visions of him dancing in her head, to the music in her earphones. Spontaneously, or almost like she just can’t take this feeling anymore, she unplugs her earphones and releases the music into the room—an act of bravery, a push for change.
