Where

In an unfamiliar foreign city, a modern city full of lines and sounds, Anong hums songs from his hometown. He seems to be searching for something or perhaps waiting for someone. He meets the walker on the street. They pass each other, nothing else happens. The encounter feels like a dream. He wakes up to a sense of déjà vu.
