Silence Heard Loud

In Silence Heard Loud, seven people in Britain talk about their reasons for fleeing, their experiences with racism, their desires and hopes, but also their struggles with feelings of belonging and home. Living in exile, restless, everyday objects and practices, inconspicuous to others, become symbols of wearable home and emotional connection – be it a bracelet that makes one think of one’s mother, or a branchy tree in whose foliage a protagonist nestles in thought of his grandmother. An artful testimony to the strength of those who, despite the traumas of the past, fight for their future, freedom and dignity in the context of a hostile migration regime.
