Book tickets
Wounds healing, scars left behind. Years have gathered since collective trauma, and heads are simultaneously looking forwards while looking back. Reconciliation is a many-faced monster - is it just a typhoon, or just by chance that these are the colours chosen to represent it all? Alienated and rootless, we persist onwards, pondering between worlds.
Followed by a Q&A with filmmakers in this programme.
