Marcos Duarte
a bus depot town in rural Paraguay
Marcos Duarte grew up in a village centered around a bustling bus depot, where his parents ran a small shoe repair shop. When his wife Lucía passed away, Marcos found solace in continuing the craft they both loved. He keeps her memory alive by narrating his daily plans to her as if she were still there, finding a rhythm in the soundscape of their quiet home.
