Where are you from, brother?

Naveed Farro


29 August 2024–29 September 2024

Where are you from, brother? (2023) is a virtual reality experience set across the span of an UberPool journey. Within the film, cultural conflicts arise between the driver and passengers, who are from Iranian diaspora and Anglo-Australian backgrounds. The film explores the gaps in experience between first and second-generation refugees, and the racist attitudes of many white Australians.
