Far From A Complete Picture…,
No disrespect to the film’s Irish creator. This film glosses over some realities of living in NYC. Other glaring omissions come to mind when watching as well. The reality, is that the current regime has finished destroying the very character (& true beauty) of the city. Financial pressures have made the city very top-heavy. Where before you had various cultures assimilating, & forming this wonderful “Melting Pot.” Now, the financial forces have removed most people who don’t make six figures from the mix. The remaining, struggling cultures are now polarized into their own communities. The ultimate barriers are financial. Most understand this, & so erect a few walls of their own to insulate themselves. I am a New Yorker, born & raised. It’s a disgusting testament to the decay that was once a great country. We were once more than the sum of our parts. That is no more. IMHO, this film doesn’t address this crucial facet of its story. It comes across as a half-measure, as a result. Bets of luck the the film’s creator. He seems like a nice guy.

|Home is where the heart is,
Home is a beautiful, poetic journey and discovery of New York City seen through the eyes of an Irish immigrant and the lens of a passionate New Yorker. This talented poet and cinematographer have captured the beauty of our beloved city. Home reminds us all that if you have been touched by the city it will occupy a place in your heart forever. It doesn’t matter if you were born here, merely live here for a short time, or pass through New York it is Home and Home is New York. A beautiful film that should not be missed. I would love to see this on the big screen.

|“Home” is worth watching!,
I was impressed by the poetry of “Home,” visually as well as aurally. Dawn Scibilia’s
images are lustrous, giving New York a look that is fresh and memorable.
This lyrical documentary features many famous New Yorkers, whose remarks
work beautifully in counterpoint to the narration.
