My starting point of the making of this film was the footage that my parents made. I watched 50 hours of the material to research how I was so carefree when I was young. The conclusion was that I was noticing all the small things like butterflies, ladybugs and tiny snails. With this conclusion I started experimenting with the footage. I tried a lot of things, from VR to Rotobrushing.

At some point in my research I wondered what would happen if the adult me would meet my younger self. From there on I started to experiment with footage of myself now and from the old footage. Soon enough, I realized animation would be the way. Animation was the best way for me, because I could create whole scenes where the adult Lena and young Lena could meet.
