Title: Coming Home
Author: Daizy Gedeon
Precis: This is my story. And, in fact, it is every immigrant’s story. What distinguishes me from other immigrants is my name and geographical origins. Otherwise, our dilemma about where we belong is the same: our eternal search for a homeland, a culture, a people to call our own is the same; our confused search for an identity is the same. …. I dared to be different. I decided to make a television documentary focusing on my personal experiences with identity and ethnicity. Reclaiming my heritage has enabled me to embrace my past, present and future. Now I know that when you work from a premise of passion and honesty, with or without trophies, you will always succeed.
