Home Soon Come
Synopsis
Home Soon Come is part of an ongoing project with the local Caribbean community in South Manchester. The film plays between archival footage of the Caribbean islands, domestic spaces in Manchester and scenes shot in a day centre for the Caribbean elderly. It explores diasporic movements, memory-placing through domestic objects and what it means to find ourselves at home in the people around us.
