Wasn't I enough to cross an ocean?
Three generations of Filipina women converge across time and continents as they attempt to bridge the emotional and physical distances that have kept them apart. Sisters Tess and Vicky are inseparable as children, climbing mango trees and sharing dreams in their small Philippine barangay. But when Tess leaves for Canada, their world fractures, leaving Vicky to shoulder the weight of familial responsibilities. More than thirty years later, a funeral brings Vicky to Vancouver to reunite with Tess and her daughter, Ana. Together, the women grapple with the unspoken tensions of the past, hoping to reconcile--but is it too late?
Weaving seamlessly between dreams and memories, Kamila Sediego's Homecoming tenderly navigates the ripple effects of immigration on those who leave, those who stay, and the generations that follow. A rich tapestry of culture, language, humour, and food, this soaring and heartbreaking drama reminds us that even across great distances, some bonds can never be broken.
