‘Always a Stranger in a Foreign Place’ is an intimate reflection on the absence of belonging that comes with lacking stability in one’s sense of home. A videopoetry filmed in Hong Kong, it explores both Agnese Perri’s personal experiences in the constant ebbs and flows of what is home, as well as the impact on ‘home’ due to the wider political landscape in which it was made. 

 

Filmed in Lung Ha Wan 龍蝦灣, Hong Kong. Edited on the lands of the Wurundjeri and Boon Wurrung People of the Kulin Nations.

Premiered at Mudfest 2021.
