Footsteps
1 hr 37 minHistory
In Footsteps Fiona Tan creates connections between personal stories and the world around us The footage shows children at play and Dutch windmills but above all people engaged in heavy physical labour in the countryside and in factories In a fascinating juxtaposition she combines these images with excerpts from letters she received from her father just after she moved to the Netherlands in the late 1980s Through his education in Indonesia Tans father knew a lot about the Netherlands without ever having visited the country In the letters he meanders seamlessly between personal news and world events such as the fall of the Berlin Wall and the Tiananmen Square protests in Beijing
