The Girl

A narrated account of a widower who finds a very bizarre sideshow when he thinks he's 'discovered' his wife's 'dream' twin!

A dramedy about enduring loss and finding eccentricity (with small fortune), inspired by Il Postino.

My wife died of the Coronavirus, and I've been grieving since in Boston (USA). I'm a Harvard professor, and I've been studying the impact of viruses/outbreaks/plagues on linguistic patterns in micro-cultures, trying to keep busy with academics to forget about the devastating loss of my wife, Lisa!

Suddenly, my life had changed once more, and I had my handy-dandy vintage Polaroid instant-photo camera on me while walking around Boston Park. My life had changed again when I noticed a haunting beauty in my foot-path, a modern fashion-model with terrific hair and a really nice smile...who resembled Lisa (my dead wife!) in 'uncanny' ways? Suddenly, I became obsessed with this Bostonian Lisa. Suddenly, I realized my life had changed --- I was going to 'follow' this Bostonian (in secret) and just take Polaroids of her (any chance I got!).

Now, Boston (USA) is a really nice place, full of romance/traffic, and I wonder if it's easier to take your Tylenol or Codeine with a greater sense of personal (secret!) confidence in such a place. Walking around this place is how I discovered this model, this Bostonian Lisa who'd become my rationale for making this great city (my home) a place to create a 'spotlight' on the nature of depression!

FASHION-MODEL: I dunno who this guy is, but he's claimed in a cyber-club that he took Polaroids convinced I'm his dead wife.

Don't worry about me; I won't be arrested or incarcerated or sent to a loony-bin, simply because I'm simply in love with the haunting memory of my deceased wife (Lisa!). This is my personal journal-mission, and I blogged about the amazingly resembling fashion-model in my cyber-arena using an alias/mask. I do know one thing --- this woman who resembles Lisa(!) has given me a refreshed 'dream' attitude towards Facebook.
