When I made "Red Path", I wanted to explore the fragile threshold between adolescence and violence. Through the journey of a young boy confronted with the brutality of his environment, I examined how innocence can be abruptly disrupted by political and social tensions. The landscape is not just a backdrop—it reflects internal turmoil, isolation, and the weight of unspoken fear. I chose a restrained approach, allowing silence and gesture to carry emotional intensity. The film ultimately suggests that violence leaves invisible scars long before it becomes visible, and that growing up in such circumstances means navigating a path already marked by conflict.
