A Kikuyu child crouches in a doorway (notes on cinematography)

A Kikuyu child crouches in a doorway.
Her laugh when a dog surprises her at the station.

the space that creates mystery
allows the distance
necessary for
recognition

Someday:
in the memories of spirits,
all that will be left of this earth will
be images such as these

that walked here
once upon a time
