Sparrows

Agnieszka Pazdykiewicz | Poland

A project about bonds, relationships between a daughter and her father, when sometimes they look in the same direction, united and delighted, and sometimes it is completely different, quite difficult, because he said, she said, and everything is wrong and upside down. Where there is a lot of absence, because life has forced it, and presence intensifies in spite of the former. One parent working abroad can result in a breakdown of the emotional bond with the child. Phone calls, even daily ones, are not enough to establish a relationship. I admire my husband, who, despite frequent separations, manages to maintain closeness with his adolescent daughter, a teenager who is slowly slipping away from her parents' world. Dad is still very important, and every return is a great celebration. I observe them in their everyday life, which is varied and often painfully ordinary.
