“The end” is a story of more than 2 people. More than male and female. It’s a feeling behind the character. Intimate Portraits resonates so well with our idea. When you create any kind of story - there is always a someone behind. This creative power. We want to open the curtain for this intimate sensation which we can only share together, hidden and found among the shelves with the books - these stories like ours.
