Abstract
Originating as an installation of three simultaneous projections, this trio of migrant tales conjures up a reality that is far more complex and unnerving than the realities gleaned from newspaper and television reports. Collins places us directly in front of the daily lives of African migrants. Her three protagonists - Pamela, Dewa and Constantine - are people, not symbols, uprooted from a culture that cannot sustain them on new soil. This book consists of stills and dialogues taken from the film, following their thoughts, memories and daily lives as they adapt to their new surroundings in spite of diverse origins and destinations.
