YOU ARE HERE is an essay film that examines the search for home in an era of transnational displacement. As the son of immigrants, the filmmaker reflects on the shifting notions of home and belonging within the context of his ethnic origins, but also extends this into the realm of national and sexual identities and affiliations. The film chronicles his trajectory from his ancestral home in Italy, to his native Canada and beyond, and weaves a compelling and contemporary portrait shaped by memories of the past and the realities of the present
SCREENINGS:
Festival International du Documentaire FIDM (Marseille) - official competition
Documentary Edge Film Festival (New Zealand) - official competition
New Zealand Film Archive (Wellington)
Human Rights Film Festival (Sarajevo)
