Moving Homeward Online Screening and Q&A Watch the PWYC rental at pdome.org from Nov. 10 to 17, 2021 Then, join us for a closing Q&A, Wed. Nov. 17 at 7 pm EST with artists in attendance.
Moving Homeward is an experimental shorts program that explores the use of the personal and familial archive as a tool for auto-ethnographic investigation and speculative reconstruction of home, family, and affections. In the context of migration, displacement, and loss, how can artists research, deconstruct, reconstruct and expand archives to work through grief, uprootedness, assimilation, and intergenerational trauma? Co-presented by Archive/Counter-Archive. Curated by PD Directors Sylvia Nowak and Ana Luisa Bernardez.
