Characters

Grandmother

The Grandmother

Voice: grandmother (Kore TTS)

Her world is warm amber, golden hour, oil-painting texture. Hands weathered and precise — she can tell the day summer ended not by the calendar, but by the cucumbers. Her warmth physically invades her granddaughter's space as the film progresses.

Granddaughter

The Granddaughter

Voice: granddaughter (Kore TTS)

Her world is cool blue-grey, minimalist, sterile. Modern city apartment. She resists at first, but the grandmother's warmth — jars of pickles, sprigs of dill, amber light — colonizes her kitchen as the story unfolds.
