The Cities I Live In (2022)

Duration: 11    Category: Personal, Short   Opportunity: Bridging the Gap

Newly settled in Belfast, a filmmaker tells his infant twins about his life journey. They see him leaving one violent place for another, longing for places that he will never see again, and hoping they will not carry his curse. Troubled cities travel as fragmented memories in this short film about a man searching for stillness.
