Description
This project is a video interview on an Italian immigrant couple from the London community. The focus is on the challenges and changes they had faced in their life as they proceeded with their migration in 1966. The interview moves through time, starting with how the couple grew up to where they are today. Throughout the video they explore connections between Italian and Canadian culture. They tell their story on being in the Canadian workforce, raising a daughter in Canada, and making a life for themselves in a foreign country. The couple also dabble into how they feel about their own identity and what it means to be a Canadian after their journey from Europe. From the comfort of their home they simply supplied their life journey, which has been processed into a professional digital interview.
