One person's voice, left behind on paper.

Letters and diaries that never reached the textbooks still survive — scraps left outside history's main current. We call them "fragments." One at a time, we turn the voice on a single sheet into a video, with verifiable sources. Not heroes, but one person who truly breathed in their time.

I make these alone, alongside my day job. I too am buried in history — which is why I wanted to unearth the footsteps history left out.
