In Traces of Home, in Co-Production with Kartemquin Films and funded by Latino Public Broadcasting and the Sundance Film Institute, filmmaker Colette Ghunim embarks on journeys with her parents to find the ancestral houses they were forced to flee as children in Mexico and Palestine. What begins as a desire to connect to Colette's cultural origins reveals an internal quest to heal her disconnect with her parents, and, ultimately, with herself.
