The Wounded Man of the Somme

He returns from the Somme. The wife and daughter he asks for do not exist. In a world ravaged by war, Marthe Lenoir meets a man whose wound is more than physical. He remembers a family, a home, a life waiting far from the front. But the names lead nowhere.

remained.

You followed a presence, crossed a place, looked at an object. The stories kept their place. Your visit left another trace.

“A life remembered.
A present we choose.”
