Raydrick Feliciana’s film Raiz (or “Roots” in Papiamento) documents a personal exploration of past, family, and a question of home, woven through long-forgotten footage and distant conversations.
Our Colleague Elinice Adeyemi (filmmaker, community organizer, and self-proclaimed Diaspora Babe) will hold a conversation with Feliciana exploring the intricacies of belonging, displacement, and spaces of home and return.
This event will delve into the personal journeys and experiences that inspired the film and also the cinematic techniques used to evoke feelings of the diaspora. Following their conversation, there will be a Q&A session where attendees can engage directly with the speakers, ask questions, and gain deeper insights into their creative and storytelling processes.
