I Want to Go Home

About This Movie

I Want to Go Home is an unflinching look at homelessness that’s both intimate and raw. The film follows Claus, who finds himself thrust into life on the streets after losing his home, and Tsega, who juggles her three kids while searching for stable housing. The pacing feels almost journalistic, offering a fly-on-the-wall glimpse into their struggles without any sugarcoating. The tone is heavy, but there's a subtle warmth in how it captures the resilience of these characters. There’s no frills here—just real-life grit. The performances are striking; you can feel the weight of their experiences. It’s an important exploration of societal failure and the complexities of homelessness today, and it really stays with you.
