What lies were in your case file? What made you π€Β
A case file does not merely record reality; over time, it constructs it. Once an assertion is typed onto official letterhead, stamped, and archived, it sheds the impermanence of human memory and acquires the weight of institutional authority. Even when built on half-truths, misinterpretations, or outright fabrications, the narrative within the binding becomes the baseline from which every judge, social worker, and investigator operates. These images tell a story that highlights the absurdity of what can enter a case file and affect an entire family forever.
