SYNOPSIS

The protagonist, who has just ended a six-year relationship, talks to her ex-boyfriend about what she felt during that time. Later, she falls in love through a dating app, but that relationship doesn't last long either. Six Years and Six Times is a love story presented in a vlog style. The film features a collage of various sources, including animations with diverse art styles, illustrations, live-action footage, and scenes where the director herself appears. It explores emotions realized through love, unforgettable experiences, lingering memories, and the future she dreams of anew.

DIRECTING INTENTION

The story begins at the extremes of a relationship. On one hand, there's a six-year relationship, trustworthy just by the number alone, on the other hand, relationships formed through dating apps, often based on short-term encounters. The female protagonist, once bold and passionate about love in her 20s, finds that her approach to love has changed as she builds her own life in her 30s. This shift turns what once felt like an escape into a leap forward. She starts to resonate with the common notion that it becomes harder to meet new people as one ages. Even though this conventional idea has hurt her in the past, she gradually becomes part of it. However, she comes to realize that this transformation is, in fact, a way of respecting herself.
