‘Scars of Home’ seamlessly weaves together animations, poetic narrative and scientific insights to explore the forces that draw us back to places once shared with a cherished loved one. Amidst the backdrop of a rocky shoreline, mysterious glowing lights among the rocks draw us into a magical world where we are introduced to an enchanting reimagining of the humble limpet (a marine mollusc with a conical shell). Animated sequences of magical glowing limpets exploring the rocks accompanied by a poetic narrative describes the limpet’s legendary ability to return to the exact same spot, creating an imprint on the rock called a ‘home scar’. The mysterious force that draws the limpet back to its home, that has intrigued scientists for decades, becomes a poignant symbol of our own need for attachment. As the magical glowing limpets guide us through the rocks, we learn of the love that has led a marine ecologist to devote their life to understanding the often overlooked limpet.

Following a poetic and moving narrative of love, loss and enduring attachment we are pulled deeper into this otherworldly reality until a sudden sound disrupts this beautiful mirage; extinguishing the lights and leaving us with a poignant moment of reflection. ‘Scars of Home’ is a captivating and visually stunning journey into the human heart's attachment to cherished spaces, inviting us to find solace in the enduring marks left by love.
