Synopsis: 42 is a reflective digital story presented as a poetic letter from me, a daughter, to my late mother. Blending personal narration with archival photos and video, the story explores intergenerational parallels, grief, and identity, culminating in a meditation on memory, loss, and enduring connection.
Assets: I wrote and narrated the poem, and the pictures and videos were either from my archives or filmed myself.
