Postcards

From the 12th of August 1940 to the 20th of September 1945, a man sent to the woman he met one morning and then loved for the rest of his life, one postcard a day, everyday, throughout the war, the bombing, the African military campaign, the evacuation, the armistice. The 879 delivered postcards, carefully kept, tell the history of a new born love, the expectations, the fear of loss, the patience of waiting for each other but also the abyss of a Nation, the impending war, the resistance against fascism and also the faith in the private and collective happiness that came together at the end of the Second War World.
