Please help us spread the word about our film. "Home" needs your support. Please share with friends! Thanks! Dawn and Alan Producers/Distributors, "Home" WINNER Best Documentary Magners Irish Film Festival 2006 Harvard Film Archive "This is a beautiful film, a visual poem to that most intimate of ideas "home," where the totality of human experiences, like the imperceptibly added layers of a pearl, combine to create, in this wonderful instance, a gem." Filmmaker, Ken Burns “Beautifully captures the Irish immigrant’s journey through the myth and mystery of New York” Filmmaker, Jim Sheridan “A heartfelt and lyrical journey about the meaning of home.” Actor, Gabriel Byrne “A personal odyssey around the mystery of New York” Irish Novelist, Niall Williams “Home is a poetic meditation on New York City as a magnet for a kaleidoscope of people. Alan Cooke’s voice-over is engaging and personal, conveying the love of an Irishman for his adopted city. Dawn Scibilia’s images are lustrous, giving the Big Apple a fresh and vivid look. It’s a lovely film. Annette Insdorf, Film Scholar, Director of Undergraduate Film Studies, Columbia University “With "Home," Ms. Scibilia, a Brooklyn native, brings the series back to urban locales — which she shoots with gorgeous results. Her eye for lustrous textures and the sculptural shadows of the city's architecture makes for a miniature city symphony. She often succeeds in uncovering new beauty in New York's ordinary elements by avoiding the ready-made iconography of historic landmarks.” THE NEW YORK SUN
