“You know what happened here...It is creepy... And, the usual, everyday things were around us… A green shirt in the mud, right in front of the building...This reminded me that people lived there... They did not let us turn our cameras on... Thousands of plastic bags were hanging from tree branches... Like leaves...They photographed our car, wrote our license plate number down...We felt the urge to finish everything quickly and leave the place as soon as possible”.
