As part of the 5th EUNIC (European Union National Institutes for Culture) Film Festival, the FNCC presents:
Hüseyin comes to work in Germany in 1964, and later brings his wife and children from Turkey. Years later he buys a holiday home in his old hometown. After Hüseyin death and funeral in Anatolia, most of the family returns to Germany. Depicting identities that evolve slowly, the film reflects on the difficult question of what we call “home” – a question for which there are many different answers.
