Ways of Being Home is an evocative audiovisual meditation on the experience of Mexican immigrants living and working in rural America.
Ways of Being Home continues and expands prior examinations of displacement, marginalization, and belonging, this time from the perspective of the Mexican community living in Northfield. The film follows a nonlinear narrative that freely combines interviews, reenactments, animated sequences, and portraits of Northfield and Maltrata, the town that most of the Mexicans in Northfield left in order to come north.
Ways of Being Home has received support from the Minnesota State Arts Board (Artist Initiative Grant 2016, 2018) and a Jerome Foundation Film, Video, and Digital Media Grant (2016).
