This piece was inspired by videos Julie Goldstone‘s 8-year-old daughter shot on her toy camcorder. Moved by the pure joy and awe captured in her footage, Goldstone felt compelled to create a meditative short, celebrating the beautiful way we can still access our inner child. Watching her play brought back memories of navigating the world with abandon, free from self-consciousness or judgment, playing for hours, lost in imagination and exploration. This piece is a tribute to that pure, unfiltered wonder we all carry within us.
