The Long Goodbye

The Long Goodbye (2026)

Love stories are embedded in every migration story — those who we leave behind, those who we meet upon arrival, and what allows a new place to begin to feel like home.

The film traces how bodies of water, from their sweeping currents to soft tides, have shaped us, enabling transatlantic migration and continuing to impact communities in east London and beyond. The work explores the creation of new identities and artistic forms by the immigrants who have relocated across oceans, both voluntarily and by force.
