“Memory is dynamic, it's alive.”
Ari Folman

“This morning, as I did every morning, I woke up and went straight to Peter's attic. I sat silently on my usual spot on the floor. Peter came to sit beside me. We didn't have to say a single word, it was so perfect: just us and nature. The world didn't exist.”
Ari Folman, Anne Frank's Diary: The Graphic Adaptation
