At its heart, Bleeding Memories is a story about sisterhood — about how, no matter the hand you are dealt in life, it is the people around you who shape what that life becomes.

Inspired by the idea of “the seven minutes of life,” we aim to create a moving and visually compelling story that reflects on memory, love, and what truly stays with us.
