Trailer of "Casa de bambú, piso de cemento"

Kim Hernandez

Emelita, Luz, Maria and Arlene left the Philippines at different times in their youth to settle in Barcelona and Hospitalet de Llobregat. Through archive footage and intimate conversations, the director reconstructs the journey taken by her mother and aunts, exploring the similarities and differences between their experiences and her own identity.

The film is a reflection on migration and roots and explores the relationship with a city that, over time, has become their home.
