Film 1
From the tender act of remembering in Who Will Be Remembered Here to the experimental self-discovery of Dissonance, this programme brings together voices that refuse erasure and reimagine belonging.
Film 2
We move through connection and curiosity in Oceania, softness and love in Two Black Boys in Paradise, later-life freedom in Two Travelling Aunties, and the bold, chaotic joy of Sriracha.
