one small moment, somewhere else

Once shows one small thing happening somewhere in the world — a bakery that ran out of bread, a bus that was a few minutes late, a market that closed early because the owner had to pick up her granddaughter from school.

Every hour it quietly becomes somewhere else. There is no list, no feed, no next. Only one item exists at a time — the kind you might happen to overhear, walking through a town that is not yours.

The two prices, milk and eggs, are not a chart. They are the smallest possible thread connecting you to someone else's ordinary day.
