Description
"Who IS the foreigner? Am I the foreigner in my own home? Who decides?" Such were the questions posed by renowned author Toni Morrison at her 2006 guest-curated exhibit at the Louvre, THE FOREIGNER'S HOME. There she invited several renowned artists whose work also dealt with the experience of cultural and social displacement to join her in a public discussion that Morrison herself had been pursuing through her own research and writing. This film expands that discussion by integrating exclusive footage of the Nobel Laureate in dialogue with artists in 2006 with a sit-down conversation in her own home in 2015. Voted Best Mid-Length Documentary at the **Montreal International Black Film Festival.** Official Selection at the **BFI London Film Festival.** *"The words are straightforward, but the haunting music, animated scenes and the logic of poetry reach unquestionable peaks of deep emotion." - Miguel Pendas, **Filmfest DC***
