Homecoming

Homecoming is a 16-minute cinematic work that reimagines Homer’s The Odyssey as a contemporary meditation on home and belonging, in a time, and to a planet, where ‘home’ feels increasingly intangible. Blending live-action footage from high altitude forests and meadows of the Rocky Mountains, digital 2D and 3D animation, internet imagery, and immersive sound, the film explores how individualized algorithmic technologies and environmental uncertainty have fractured contemporary perceptions of reality and planetary home. Through a turbulent visual journey, ‘Homecoming’ reflects on memory, displacement, and the confronting the impossibility of returning to a home that no longer exists—or perhaps never did.
