1 in 8 million (#2) – NY Times

I know that the New York Times series One in 8 million has been highlighted here before but I just wanted to share this week’s installment, which really touched me. It’s the story of an immigrant family from Bhutan who are trying to adapt to their new home, and it’s just wonderful. The photography is beautiful as always and the production is understated, with just the right tone. This project is so well suited to the format of audio slideshows. They are short and digestible – generally less than three minutes – but give us this fascinating glimpse into people’s lives and jobs. I hope this series just runs and runs.
