Sophie: I visited my mother's grave yesterday. I was there alone, and it was so peaceful.
Barbara: Did you talk? I sometimes visit my mother's grave too. It's comforting to talk to her. I like that she doesn't reply; it makes me feel more independent.
Sophie: Well, I sometimes hear her voice. Yes, there's something calming about those moments.
Barbara: Uh huh. It's a space where I can just be myself and speak freely. How was she, your mother?
Sophie: I told her about everything that's happened lately, and this time she, well, just listened. It felt really good.

Voice-over
Listening is an art. Something you want to be remembered for, even when you’re gone. Maybe people will keep coming to talk even then. So the connection will continue.
