Five distinct new films, collaboratively combined to form a single work responding to Belgian filmmaker Chantal Akerman’s luminous News From Home (1976).

Artists Sirah Foighel Brutmann and Eitan Efrat, Eva Giolo, Rebecca Jane Arthur, Katja Mater, and Maaike Neuville each engage in their own way with the epistolary device of Akerman’s film, as well as recurrent themes of alienation, distance and the mother-daughter relationship.
