Synopsis
Home Soon Come is part of an on-going project with the elderly Caribbean community in south Manchester. The film plays between archival footage of the Caribbean islands, interviews with family members, and scenes shot in a day centre for the elderly. It explores diasporic movements, memory-placing through domestic objects, and what it means to find ourselves at home in the people around us.
Home Soon Come screens as part of the shorts program Homelands, on Thursday, July 1 at 6:00 pm.
Please note: this film can be viewed only once during a three-hour window beginning at the scheduled time. For more information on viewing your film, please visit our FAQ and How to Watch pages.
