This essay film follows a ghostly sense of belonging to places that were only ever briefly home, carrying a persistent feeling of missing something, or someone, across generations, time, and borders. Borders drawn on maps, and borders drawn inside a family – a continuous grief, collided with nostalgia and daydreams of other times – all exist on one screen. Unable to visit my grandmother’s (Ba’s) house in person, I trace it instead through internet documentation, a digital wandering laid alongside 16mm footage shot on the ground in Massiaru, Estonia — two kinds of arrival, neither of them complete. At its center is Ba, and the doubt that home might not be a place at all — only a certainty that never quite arrives.
