A sweeping, panoramic docu-performance based on the Chinese saying ‘to seek a better life by crossing the Four Seas’, Diaspora explores the diasporic phenomenon of the human spirit in time and space, celebrating humanity and human tenacity.
Through stories of Vietnamese-Americans, Indonesian Chinese, Africans in Europe, Indians in Southeast Asia and Orang Laut, Ong Keng Sen evokes thoughts on home, memory, identity, and migration through war and through choice. Diaspora is a celebration of humanity and human tenacity.
