5 Directions to my house

 


The film production is about migrant teenagers, who are in many ways in transformation.Based in their new homeland, they try to design rooms in my art class.The film refers to the Mexican writer and activist Juan Felipe Herrera and his poem: 5 directions to my house.To give directions to go back to a home is not always possible; sometimes the house is a wreck or has totally disappeared. Can you still cross the border or can you only travel without a body in your memories? How to design your new life? Immigrant teenagers made an attempt using paint, collage and frottage.
