 We try to recover a lost image of Ana and Pasha with their family and their father, Nichifor, who fled the Soviets. Nichifor was considered a dissident due to his and his brother’s (a local mayor in Moldova) staunch opposition to the Bolsheviks. The details of what happened to their father after they were deported are hazy for Ana and Pasha. They only know that he was captured in Romania and sent to a gulag near Odessa. He died in prison of unknown causes. This photo was taken before the family was deported and the original image has been lost. It is impressive to think about the availability of images for this story and how much easier it is to preserve events and memory today, “The children nowadays are smarter, they remember everything. They are born with mobiles in their hands. We weren&#039;t so lucky.” -Pasha Ana remembers the night their father fled, &quot;One night, around midnight, our father, before fleeing to Romania, knocked on the window and gave us a box of sweets, saying to us, &#039;Your father is going away alone, I don’t know where, but you must listen to your mother because she is staying behind to raise you.&#039;&quot; They never saw him again.
