In 2016, a film student exploring a rural Moldovan village found over 4,000 soviet-era photographs in the attic of an abandoned house. they were all taken by Zaharia Cusnir in the 1950s-60s, an unknown alcoholic who died forgotten. He captured the life of an entire community.

When the film student spoke to the surviving daughter of Zaharia Cusnir, she was uninterested in the collection and dismissed it as "garbage that no one needs".

I asked and they let my comrades over on ProleWiki upload the file! Now anyone can download it here.

It’s sadly just the first part of a series. And it was designed for elementary schoolers so… it’s certainly not something too deep. But it’s interesting to see how the youngins were taught. Plus there are some neat illustrations.

It’s also only 97 pages so it’s a quick read.

@gabajoofs Thought you might find it interesting
