Words written on sheets of paper, sent far away, with no certainty of reaching the destination. Who could even communicate like that today? That was a different time, but not a distant one. Uncertainty and the waiting marked the connections through letters. Filmed and/or read out to the viewer, as the final recipient of epistolary cinema, the letters are the medium that condenses the memory and intimate narrative between two absent people. So, letters are the subject of the plot of the two films presented in this cycle, which examine the fragility of relationships and the power of words to shorten distances and affections.
