man oh man… completely took my breath away, wept multiple times tbh. the always present but ever distant pillars of modern globalization (cargo ships, planes, and trains) loom over a group of kids forced to sacrifice their education in order to survive.
cant help but think about today where one month we announce we’ve managed to cram another billion transistors onto a wafer of silicon the size of a stamp, and the next month we remove the funding that feeds underprivileged communities. so strange that we use inanimate objects as milestones for “human” achievement instead of the actual human experience.
