New Shorts: On Leaving

Moving on is a simple fact of life. But what do we move on from and how much of us do we leave behind? This collection of short films explores the theme of migration, from the anticipation of the move, through the physical journeying, to the psychological toll exacted and the consequences and complications of finding yourself somewhere else. These stories have a deeply human and empathetic emotional core. [PG] Rohan Berry Crickmar and Jenny Clarke
