H.O.M.E.

A "love letter" to New York City through its subways & enclaves

PG-13 2018 · 73 min

A "love letter" to New York City through its subways & enclaves, H.O.M.E. is a film woven of two stories. One of a missing young man with Asperger's Syndrome who seeks refuge in the underground labyrinth of NYC. The other follows a gambling Ecuadorian livery driver & a Chinese woman desperate to get home to her sick child. Along each of their journeys through the urban landscape, they discover the deeper understanding of communication & their intimate connections despite their barriers. H.O.M.E. is an understated yet lyrical exploration of urban alienation & meaningful encounters through the lens of a "disconnected" city in constant motion.
