“Beyond our fears” | INDA by Human Postcards

(Human Postcards) MYANMAR | Inda used to be a monk for 20 years before taking the immense leap of leaving monk hood for love. He had no experience of real life such as work, and tells us about how he overcame his fears of starting from scratch.

Human Postcards: fears

About Human Postcards

Human Postcards is an ongoing series of 60 second video portraits, capturing the inspirational and often powerful messages of everyday people from around the world.

“Since starting in 2015, we have produced over 150 unique postcards in multiple countries. Each postcard is one minute long and focuses on a single idea or aspect of a person’s life.”
“The idea came in 2014 while we were working in London. Every day we walked along Oxford Circus and saw a man in a human billboard costume advertising a golf store. We wondered what he was thinking as he stood there being passed by thousands of people, and if we could capture his story in a format which all of these busy people could enjoy, to change their perception of him.”
“As we started to film, we realised that the project was growing to be more than something about unnoticed people, and that everyone has stories, lessons, and dreams to pass on.”
