Song for the New World

Following the disappearance of a man in Scotland, his daughter recalls words chanted before nightfall. Lulled by soft Creole tunes, Song for the New World is a waking dream calling for contemplation and the nostalgia of exile.

Of Haitian descent, Miryam Charles is a director, producer and cinematographer living in Montreal, Canada. Her work explores themes related to exile and the legacies of colonization. In 2022 she premiered her first feature film, Cette Maison.
