Four films investigate the "spatial reality of domesticity."

Taking its title from a quote by the architect Gio Ponti this program attempts to reveal the spiritual origins and ends of architecture through studies of its material traces. These works together reflect how different kinds of homecomings can bring the weight of a building’s past to bear upon or reinforce its enduring physical dimensions. 

Following the screening, guest filmmaker Rhayne Vermette will appear for discussion with curator Inney Prakash and Block Museum Curator of Cinema and Media Arts Michael Metzger.
