A raw, vivid portrait of a community left behind by modern life, drawing on photographer Martin Martinček’s images of Liptov’s inhabitants in central Slovakia’s Tatra‑framed valleys, where each shot compresses whole lifetimes into luminous, timeless frames. Dušan Hanák extends this work in a poetic visual essay, presenting broader vignettes of their isolated human experiences.
