Director's notes
In Kazakh, “Birge” means “together” and “oneness”. Birge, we made a film that reflects on the themes of love, sincerity and self-love. While many think that they can find peace in a romantic partner, finding peace with yourself can truly pave the way to see love in the surrounding world.
In this film, each member of the team told their own story about learning to love in a new way.
