Yet only here I am home

About This Movie

Yet Only Here I Am Home is a unique fusion of animation and documentary that delves deep into the psyche of second-generation Dutch individuals with migration backgrounds. The film crafts a poetic narrative, threading together personal memories and moments of vulnerability. Its tone is contemplative, almost introspective, allowing the audience to linger in the emotions portrayed. The pacing is deliberate, giving space for the interviews to breathe and for the themes of identity and belonging to unfold. What’s fascinating is how it uses animation not just as a stylistic choice but as a means to illustrate the internal struggles of feeling like the 'Other'. It’s a distinctive approach that blends real voices with artistic interpretation.
