IZVOR DOMA (The Source of Home)

In a quest to weave a connection to her heritage, the grandchild of a Yugoslavian immigrant gets lost in between memory and fantasy.

Writer/Director Katherine Kopajtic (Katie) sets out to discover her immigration story in hopes of validating her connection to the “homeland.” Along the way she is confronted by generational trauma and a romanticization of European ancestry in which memory and fantasy are hopelessly entangled. “Izvor Doma” takes us on a journey to the source, interrogating identity, heritage, and appropriation.
