Originally developed as an exchange of film letters between Marilú Mallet and Valeria Sarmiento, the former re-conceived the project upon the withdrawal of the latter. Now Mallet talks with her family: in English with her husband while her son who grew up in Quebec speaks French. What does home mean when everything feels in-between and transient?
