Director's Statement:
In the isolating times of the Covid-19 pandemic, I reflected on the nature of friendships – the ones that are fleeting, and those rare, enduring ones that withstand the test of time. This contemplation led to the realization that while not all friendships last, the ones that do are invaluable. "Friendship" is a tribute to these lasting connections.

The film, drawing from my personal experiences, narrates the story of two women from diverse backgrounds who meet in high school. Their journey through life, despite diverging paths due to family and career, is a testament to the enduring nature of their bond, surviving life's highs and lows.

"Friendship" aims to celebrate the beauty of reconnection, evoking nostalgia and encouraging viewers to rekindle their own meaningful friendships. It highlights the importance of human bonds in preventing the loneliness and depression often associated with isolation, underscoring the idea that connection is essential to our well-being.
