Music Carry Me Home

Watch Cumberland based artist, Holly Keen Goldes' documentary where they set out to fulfill their late mother’s final wish: to understand their Chinese Canadian family history. As Holly moves through grief and reconnection, they trace stories shaped by migration, racism, and Canada’s colonial systems of erasure. Music becomes a thread of resilience, strengthening bonds with family across generations and weaving a deeply personal and political search for truth, memory, identity, and healing.
