Title of film: Amma

What constitutes “home” to you - is it your birthplace, where you grew up, or where you are now? Director Victoria Rivera has spent her career exploring the meaning of identity pull between birthplace, family, and chosen paths. In her latest short film, Amma, this manifests in a young woman navigating family expectations from afar through the medium of answer-phone messages.. Sitting down with 1.4, Rivera reflects on her journey into filmmaking, the influence of her bicultural experiences, and working with a real family.
