A woman sits in a hospital room, alone with her dying father. As the constant din of antiseptic hospital noises pushes her to confront her inevitable loss, she escapes into a series of lush childhood memories. Told with a quiet, expressive soundtrack and beautiful, subdued design that shifts between the pale hospital palette and the impressionistic landscapes of the woman's memories, 4 North A is both a tender celebration of the fleeting joys of life and a bittersweet reminder that we don't always get the closure we seek.
