> Fragments of a Life <https://thefutureofmemory.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4e8e884f65034bffcdc47271b&id=addd4c9cce&e=4d63c7658e>, video combining intimate family conversations between Olga Stefan and her grandmother, Sorana Ursu (now 95), with footage, photographs, and other images from the past and present, creating an assemblage of memories and impressions that both support and reject historical events. Through the personal account of Sorana Ursu, whose father was killed during the 1941 Iasi pogrom, along with those of other members of the family now in Israel and the United States, biographical fragments are pieced together in a desperate attempt to establish a coherent narrative of life, while acknowledging the incomplete image of reality they present, the malleability of memory, and the tragedy of forgetting that is an inherent part of survival.

Daniel also discusses existential topics, like life and death, belonging, and homelessness, and the role art plays in the face of meaninglessness.
