Synopsis

Steven Woloshen's family came from the Ukraine. All their lives, they were looking for a home. For more than 600 years, they traveled from North Africa, Spain, Poland, Belarus and by the turn of the 20th century, ended up at Odessa, saving their money for a passage to Canada. Woloshen's film is constructed as an experimental performance paralleling that journey.
