I believe everything that ever lived has a story to tell (or that did not live, even https://youtu.be/HOPwXNFU7oU).

I imagine a Borgesian world where all the stories that could ever be told are available to all the future ages of time. What incredible things could we do, as a people, if we truly were able to process in some way the lives of those who came before us, and knowing our own stories could be shared with generations to come? Narcissism notwithstanding, as for me it's the ordinary lives that have so much to offer us, in aggregate.

I think this is beautiful idea and thank you sharing the link to the short film.

And yes, the little things are in fact the big things.
