It was in the 1920s when Emma and Marcelle met at a school. The two girls were in love, but Marcelle's tuberculosis forced them to part long. Marcelle was admitted to a sanatorium and wrote many letters to Emma. About 100 years later, these letters were found and given new life by Emma's daughter and grandson. Perhaps the vitality that had been hidden in the letter for a long time was only now discovered.
