THE STORIES OF THINGS: EPISODE 9 – NOTHING FANCY

‘… a black box with a simple white label on it which says: ‘letters from dad’. Nothing fancy…’ (Amanda Ghanbarpour)

SHOW NOTES:

THE STORY:

Today’s story is written and recorded by Amanda. It is the story of a box, which is ‘nothing fancy’ on the exterior, but incredibly meaningful inside. We will let you discover what the story is about by listening to this episode. We were once again humbled to receive such a personal and thoroughly touching story for the podcast.

DISCUSSION:

We mainly discuss what it means to leave something truly valuable behind. Utterly taken by Amanda’s description, our recommendation is of a film where something – ‘nothing fancy’ is passed on in a similarly meaningful way. The film is Cinema Paradiso, a classic which we decided to revisit after recording this story.

Thank you, Amanda for sharing this moment with us. We are humbled and honoured to be the curators of your stories.
