In Spanish, the word Estranjero can be used interchangeably as 'foreigner' or 'abroad'. For Camilo Sanchez, from Valledupar,Columbia, this poetically reflects his feelings of perplexity and anticipation during his worldwide travels as an educational migrant. In Portuguese, the word Saudade can be described as sentiment for a home dearly missed. Side by side, these words reflect Camilo's multi-vocal experience of having to adapt to two new languages as he studied, as they gradually merged together into one. Saudade Es Estranjero (Nostalgia is Abroad) is a reflexive exploration into the relationship between international study, the impacts of adapting to new languages, and the expectations in these new cultures. A blend of interview, multilingual inter-titles and observational footage inspired by 1960s Latin American 'Third Cinema', this short documentary follows the experiences of Camilo.
