Tuva Luva Love Turned Over at 02:41 and Has Watched It Eleven Times

In a dark flat in Umeå, a vlogger who films her own sleep finds the one moment in eight hours where something happens.

It is 3 a.m. in a fourth-floor flat off Storgatan, and the laptop is the only light. Tuva Luva Love is watching Tuva Luva Love sleep.

Eight hours, played at sixteen times speed. The woman on the screen lies on her left side under a mustard duvet. Nothing happens for a long while. After a while you begin to love the nothing.

Then 02:41. She turns over. Slowly, like a ferry in a small harbour. One arm comes out and finds the pillow.

Tuva rewinds. Watches it again. Eleven times now.

She pauses on the elbow. She says she would like to meet whoever decided on 02:41, and ask why not 02:40.
