This is the collection of work from three students from the Nakra workshop. Participants have identified the most valuable inhabitant of the village. They think she is the one who deserves the respect. She knows stories tracing back to early 20th century. She has a good memory of her childhood and describes all important local events taking place in the village. She shared old traditions and way of living with the participants.
