Q&A with Miryam Charles

Through staged tableaux, lyrical voiceover, and vivid 16mm cinematography, This House narrates the events around the unexplained death of a 14-year-old girl in Bridgeport, Connecticut, in 2008. A tribute to her cousin, director Miryam Charles bridges locations—Haiti, Canada, the U.S.—and temporalities, proposing impossible narratives and alternate timelines: of migrations and homecomings, tragedy and the process of overcoming it.
