A woman writes a message during her daily tram commute to work. Seemingly insignificant details, like selling a table or a couch, hide a deeply personal story about love, and the fragility of the hope for new beginnings.

Just before leaving was created for Cities and Memory's Autumn Project, reimagining the sound of a Melbourne tram.
