‘The Home (DIFF)’ landscape poster

The Home weighs in as a good-humored portrait on the oldest and largest Jewish homes in South Africa as its clients kvetch about companions and battle to elect a new Resident Committee. The residents are attended, with notable affection, by carers who are mostly Xhosa-speaking Black women working on minimum wages. The Home works as gentle observational comedy, but it is also a record of a microcosmos of South Africa today, where a legacy of racial and economic segregation still lingers.
