In Soon Come Back, Nande Walters explores memory, or lack thereof, during a trip to visit her grandparents in Kingston, Jamaica. As one of the first US-born children in her family, she reflects on occasional visits to the island through digitizing family photos and videotapes. From her father’s childhood home in Kingston to her grandmother’s childhood home in the mountains of Negril, the filmmaker follows their migrations of leaving home as young adults, using the camera to bridge 22 years of oceanic distance between her, her grandmother, and her ancestral land.
This film screens as part of the shorts program Sometimes I Imagine You a Little Lonely.
