Synopsis:
An alienated and lonely man goes to take a rest and dreams about the same torment and feeling of inability to bear the burdens of life that torment him even when he is awake. He dreams of his ups and downs, as well as fears which turned into symbols that also came from the rigid everyday reality.

Bryan Away: The Lake
2020 16+ 5 min
by Qianwen Yu
Lake is liquid, inanimate, emotionless. Like blood flowing through a body, the water circulates and sustains, bringing life to its surroundings. In this video, life is continuously reborn through the raindrops, through the terrain and into the air. The beauty of this process is juxtaposed with the songwriter’s perspective, someone who is detached and yearning to feel the full breadth of human emotion.
