A touching, poetic story about forgetting, but above all about the importance of keeping memories alive.
THE BOOK: Looking back, a boy remembers the autumn of his 10th birthday, when he lived in Dharamsala and Tibetan monks danced prayers written on colourful flags.
He remembers his grandmother, who had lost her memory. In a gesture as meaningful as it is full of love, he decides to collect and inscribe his grandmother’s memories on small pieces of cloth, like a farandole of precious moments, and let the wind envelop him in this past life.

Themes: Oblivion, Transmission, Sharing, Family
