Every 24 hours millions of people upload video about their day to Instagram. We are used to perceiving life as a set of interchanging stories. And we all want attention to our Stories. But among us there are people with real stories, for whom our attention is vital. These are war veterans and witnesses, old people in nursing homes. They don't have virtual Stories, although they do have real stories to tell. They cannot draw attention to themselves in social networks, although it is attention that can improve and prolong their lives.
Disappearing Stories is a series in Instagram Stories format, based on the lives of real people. Each story tells a short episode in the lives of our characters. Like the Stories, it just disappears in 24 hours - just like the lives of veterans and old people in nursing homes fade away without attention.
