Random Notes taken during the screening at Seattle International Film Festival
-1-
One week before Christmas they met in Quincy
he looked at her for at least two minutes before speaking
she listened to his childhood stories attentively and asked questions
peeling apples in the character of his perished father
just like her father who lost his leg to the tank
or maybe, from falling off the ladder
History cannot have its tongue cut off
those flushed away shall come back

Each lion was a lion, and each fox was a fox.
Why looking at animals
because a ten-year-old cow is already old
because a goat outlives its owner
because we are naked before the gaze of cats and dogs
Can animals comprehend death?

Play a political song on the radio of art
against the dictating voice on the psychopath
Hope has nothing to do with optimism
truth are most easily told in silence
Ideas worship people without judging
disease possess people without explaining
The War would be over
if we stay in bed all day long
It is in hell that solidarity is important
not in heaven
-4-
They are something from our farm,
but not from our farm
Fragile I would say
it is fragile
They are the most beautiful present I have ever received
Six eggs concealed in a thatched box wrapped with green ribbons
where the blue becomes bluer
and the yellow yellower
