The Latehomecomer (trailer also on this page)
leaving is not the same as forgetting...
When does experience end? When does reflection begin? Until a people can reflect on where they've come from, they will spend all of time searching for where they are.
This is the Hmong refugee experience, reflected and refracted in the scope of a lyric documentary by Kao Kalia Yang, writer, and John O'Brien, filmmaker. Funded by the MN State Arts Board and sponsored by the Center for Hmong Studies, this work is dedicated to the Hmong people who lived in the camp. Ban Vinai Refugee Camp, like camps the world over, was never meant to last. But in the memories of those who lived there, those who loved there, those who belonged there: the camps will always be.

-- Watch this Full HD video on your PC or Television (via a DVD player).
-- If you watch a streaming video (HD) on Vimeo the resolution is 1280 x 720, the quality will degrade due to a slow Internet connection, slow PC, and a slow Internet browser like “Internet Explorer 7.0 or 8.0”, choice another Browser "FireFox" or "Google Chrome" are ok.
Vimeo also reduces the frame rate and bandwidth, not to blame Vimeo but we can do a lot better, even on a slow PC.
