The grounds became a battleground of forms: official letters in stamped envelopes versus a petition written on used scripts and signatures in the margins. They rallied on the street, holding up splices of film like protest placards. The rain turned the papers into confetti; the cameras continued to run.

After the final screening the lights stayed low. The crowd dissolved into clusters that smelled of wet umbrellas and rain-damp clothes. The boy pointed her to a backroom where a dozen people sat in a circle on upturned crates. In the center burned a handful of tea lights. She filmed a minute under the streetlamp outside
