Synopsis
HOMECOMINGS incorporates many of Dirk de Bruyn's experimental filmmaking techniques into this film-diary of his family's extended stay in the Netherlands, 25 years after he had migrated to Australia as an eight-year-old. The film explores his reactions to a culture that is both familiar and yet unfamiliar to him, and contrasts this with his own feelings about being a migrant to Australia.
