The Home Promised

A case study on forced displacement, and a redefinition of the concept of home. Set in the context of Taiwan’s rapid urbanization, residents of the Shaoxing housing community face eviction, and must choose a potential new location to call home. Through the president of the community’s council, we gain a sense of both a personal and logistical interpretation of the issue at hand, as well as a sense of what home means to him. The Home Promised is an engaging and thought-provoking film that will challenge audiences as well as give a sense of appreciation.
