Memoirs to Little Jamaica is a short documentary film that shares the intimate feelings of a Jamaican-Canadian who feels culturally displaced. The film is portrayed through the narrator's perspective, Chelsea Nyomi, as she narrates her journey through a quest for belonging. Chelsea is a 2nd-generation Jamaican-Canadian (individual born in Canada to one or more immigrant parents), who at the time was living in Toronto, Canada. This piece draws a sentimental connection between the Little Jamaica community in Toronto and the island of Jamaica.

Motivated by the recent sickness of her paternal grandmother, Chelsea made a 19-day trip to Jamaica in May 2022 and spent time with her uncle, cousins, and grandma - who contracted COVID earlier that year in February and was slowly recovering.

Chelsea’s work explores themes of immigration, the preservation and proliferation of culture in a foreign space, community building, and finding a “home away from home”.
