<Synopsis>
Soil flowers is a portrait film of a woman who is preparing her trip to China to take care of her elderly mother.
She lives alone in a house in Toulouse, France, occupied by a massive amount of her belongings after her partner passed away.
How does the woman deal with her emotion with the soft decay of mind?
How does she make a way out from the limbo? Is she freer than she thought? How does social change lead to her identity issues?
As a filmmaker who stays behind the camera, he is a participator and spectator in his work, the film also explores the relationship between himself and the subject which he films.
By following the woman goes back and forth between China and France for filming, the filmmaker starts to question himself.
