She stares out from the cover,
the bars of her cell behind her.

1:40:10
Beautiful.
1:40:12
Dangerous.
1:40:14
Proud.

The Times said she was close to winning
a retrial after a first failed appeal.

1:40:22
They called her show a triumph.
1:40:29
It's too much to imagine her tempering
her joy with a moment of grief...

1:40:34
...a moment for what
that triumph had cost.

1:40:38
These suitcases are
a map of that country...

1:40:43
...a terrible country
I will never revisit.

1:40:50
Even so...
1:40:53
...I find myself thinking of her...
1:40:57
...wanting to feel that wind.
1:41:02
It's a secret wanting...
1:41:05
...like a song I can't stop humming...
1:41:08
...or loving someone
you can never have.

1:41:15
No matter how much
she's damaged me...

1:41:20
...no matter how flawed she is...
1:41:23
...I know my mother loves me.
