Walter Benjamin in his Storyteller reminds us that is not always necessary to go far
away to find a story which deserves to be narrated, storyteller doesn’t have to be
someone who has come from afar, they could be someone who stayed at home, who
knows well local tales and traditions and who can transmit them in an original way. Our
present is colonized by the forms of our past and tradition is not something which can
live only in memories: it is always still around us, still living in our actions and thoughts.
