Filmmaker Herbert Alfonso and musician Glenn de Randamie travel to Ghana to do some research on polyrhythm and the West-African spirituality. However, their trip to The Motherland makes them realize that home is more than the place where they grew up. Years later, they recollect their faded memories and try to find the right words to describe their intense experience. What exactly made them feel at home and lost at the same time? What does being home actually mean for a black individual from Europe while visiting Africa? Only abstractions seem to persevere as this colourful and musically-charged collage serves to show how a life-changing experience can leave us with nothing but fragments of a truth that has yet to be discovered.
Writer and rapper Sticks (Junte Uiterwijk, 1982) is one of the most influential and successful artists in the Netherlands. Over the past twenty years, Sticks has released more than 13 albums as a solo artist and in a group - including with Opgezwolle and the Fakkebrigade. To find out what lies behind Sticks' inexhaustible urge to create, documentary maker Matthijs van Camerijk decides to follow the Zwolle resident for two years. It appears to be a period in which Sticks impressively expands his impressive oeuvre, with four new projects.
