\n“Nothing sorts out memories from ordinary moments.<\/i>\n<\/p>\n

\nIt is only later that they claim remembrance, when they show their scars.”<\/i>\n<\/p>\n

\u2014Chris Marker, “La Jet\u00e9e<\/i>“<\/p>\n

In the dream there is thunder, people shouting, the muted hissing of an intercom.\u00a0 <\/span>High overhead a monitor displays flight times, a picture of smiling children.\u00a0 <\/span>Twenty yards away a woman kneels on the tiled floor beside a man in a flowered shirt.\u00a0 <\/span>As the boy watches them, his mother’s hand tightens around his.\u00a0 <\/span>He can smell his father’s sweat, overpowering his Old Spice aftershave, hear his father’s voice breaking as he yanks him roughly away.<\/p>\n

Then the clatter of running feet, the distant high-pitched beeping of an alarm somewhere in the airport.\u00a0 <\/span>He stares, refusing to budge, and wrinkles his nose.\u00a0 <\/span>There is a smell at once oddly familiar yet strange, something he is certain he has never smelled before:\u00a0 <\/span>salt and scorched metal.\u00a0 <\/span>For an instant he wonders if it is a dream, has he perhaps forgotten something?\u00a0 <\/span>But then his father’s voice grows angry, even frightened.<\/p>\n

“…come on, this is no place for us.”<\/p>\n

As his parents hurry him away, he cranes his head, still transfixed by the kneeling woman.\u00a0 <\/span>Her spun-candy hair glowing beneath the fluorescent lights, her mouth open as though to receive a kiss, but he thinks no, she is about to scream…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
