Movie

What is My Identity?

From the opening scenes of clothespins "dancing" on a rack, through the images of the family photographs, a wooden chair, an expired student I.D. card and fragmented parts of the body, the video opens up a dialogue of personal identity. In particular, a recorded conversation between Kinga and Delfina posits many questions regarding their identifications as either Polish Canadian and/or Canadian-Polish. Is it or is it no longer possible to identify oneself with a fixed geographic place?
