DON’T COME HOME THIS YEAR is a short film about Romanian migrants returning home from Italy during the Covid-19 pandemic and getting stuck at the Austrian-Hungarian border. The film is mixture of provocative video material: The stranded send out videos about their situation from their smartphones to which migrants who remained in Italy and Romanians at home react by sending back their opinion. The film unfolds a semiotic discourse within the stress field of the pandemic on migrant workers, patriotism and virus transmission. A fast and emotional reflection on a real life fragment of the pandemic and on our use of social media.
