This project maps the places where that war happened and where its traces remain. At every location, two moments coexist: what the cameras recorded between 1936 and 1939, and what remains now, recovered through reenactments, interviews, and the author's own return to the same ground.

The photographs ask a question that has no clean answer: what does it mean to reconstruct a moment that was already, at the time, perhaps a reconstruction? At Quijorna, Gerda Taro may have restaged the capture of prisoners. Endre Ernő Friedmann built part of his early reputation on the Córdoba front on an image whose making is still disputed. The two had invented the name Robert Capa together in Paris in 1936. The reenactors dress in the uniforms of men who are gone. The question of what makes an image true runs through every frame in this archive.

This is not a finished record. It is a project in progress, built around the war's beginning in July 1936.
