From the filmmaker: HOME (2023) ‘focuses on family, identity, emigration, as well as the circle of life, death and rebirth. Its genesis and inspiration was a seven-year collection of films and photographs covering the lives of a handful of people ejected from their own cultures and homes, who are creating home and finding love at the house of a 90-year-old, bedridden writer in suburban London.’ | First screened at the ICA, London as part of the Kinoteka Polish Film Festival.

MELA HILLEARD was born in Silesia, and received an MA in filmmaking from the London Film School. She is a director and photographer.
