◆ The Feature

Six shorts, one voyage. Windrush – A New Generation hands the camera to the descendants: food, hair, breath, fathers, borders and friendship become the material of a living portrait of the diaspora today. Each film a fragment; together, a new generation answering the journey their grandparents made.
