“What do you wish to tell your family?”
When Emil’s grandfather, Ah Gong, nears the end of his life, he leaves Emil one final request: inherit his sacred duty, photographing the dead and capturing their final words before they move on. Threading the fragile balance of fulfilling this sacred duty and making time for his loved ones, Emil struggles to live in the present as he knows the dead cannot wait, but how much more can the living?
