ICA is closed from the 30 May – 3 June inclusive.
This full-length documentary, made from found footage and shot over a number of years, focuses on family, identity and emigration (through the lens of Polish-Irish-South African-English ties), as well as the circle of life, death and rebirth.
Its 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 create a home and find love at the house of a 90-year-old, bed-ridden writer, Elizabeth, in Hampstead Garden Suburb, London.
The screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Mela Hilleard.
