A father and a daughter. The pitiful chronicle of a fatherly love from joyful moments to interrupted hugs. The inexorable story of a fathers’s pain and hope who witnesses his daughter disappear with the flow of time. A subtraction impossible to imagine but nevertheless accomplished. A 20-year long story, the indomitable search for contacts in order to continue raising and loving her. Pieces of evidence sorted by date recalling painful moments of presence which become just memories little by little. Year after year, this is the story of a wait filled with the meticulous reconstruction of her absence. Chronological memories of a separation; events happen, the daughter disappears, held back by overwhelming forces. Then, only a father alone, never tamed but forced to surrender. The words of the diary explain the journey. Postal gestures and never-given gifts. Systematic traces of interrupted existences: slips of paper, symbolic objects, contact sheets, postcards, puppets and necklaces... In spite of everything.
