Am I what my home is? – This time-lapse documentary captures the journey of five homeless people who have been given a new chance at life thanks to the Housing First project in the Czech town of Otrokovice. With the support of social workers and a council flat, they attempt to reintegrate into society while continuing to wrestle with the demons of their past. Will they be able to rebuild their lives?

A discussion with filmmakers in Czech and Slovak will follow the screening, moderated by Zuzana Límová.

The capacity of the screening is limited by the number of clients of the Low-Threshold Day Center Domec.
