They should listen more carefully is a poetic video essay that reflects on the loss of control, alienation, empathy, and the aesthetics of illness. It follows two people facing a new, sudden reality together and trying to adapt to it. The video documents the time after the young photographer fell ill with cancer, moving towards an uncertain and unknown future. No one knows what will happen to you, the doctor said.
