They gave each other a promise, even if fate scattered them to different corners of the world every year to meet and make a family photo. And every year for 40 years, they restrained him.

Secondly, each time he has chosen to print only one frame. As the years passed, changed fashion, hairstyles, way of life, unchanged remained a strong family bond.
