Simon Says

A young woman wanders into a town. Helped by her associative memories about the past, an intensely poetic story comes into being, a harrowing love relationship between two sisters and their grandparents.

Simon says is a story which shows how vulnerable children can be when reality can be turned upside down at any moment, and how children restructure their worlds to adapt to adults. For what does it mean to love someone? Can desertion be love? Can misfortune turn out well?
