Meanwhile, fantasies of return and tensions between here and there linger. Traversing the perpetual crossroads of nightmares and daydreams, home becomes a space of knowing and not knowing.

TICKETS A daughter's father. A mother's sons. Across time and space, the nuanced contours of grief are mapped between generations.
