Awarded at the prestigious Venice Film Festival, the virtual reality experience “A Long Goodbye” was created by directors Kate Voet and Victor Maes. It is a symbol-rich, tender love story about the bond between 72-year-old pianist Ida and her husband Danielius, a bond that remains strong even in the face of hardship. As Ida struggles with memory problems, the central thread of the story remains the couple's deep love and their most cherished life memories, which color Ida's everyday life.

In this animated, interactive virtual reality experience, viewers are invited to see the world through Ida's eyes and spend a day from her perspective. As Ida's memory deteriorates, Danielius searches for ways to bring her memories back. Thanks to voice recordings left behind by her husband, Ida's memories come to life again and repaint her reality, like watercolor paintings being drawn anew.
