Strangers at Home explores the lives of minority communities in Asia. Though born and raised locally, they are often perceived as foreigners in their homeland.
What ups and downs do these minority communities faced, in assimilating with the locals? How are they preserving their own unique culture whilst attempting to integrate with the local way of life?
《身在异乡非异客》将到亚洲各个地区,探讨当地少数族群的生活与故事。他们的外貌、肤色或许与大多数人格格不入,却是土生土长的当地人。他们的祖先来自异乡,他们却在先人的“异乡”落地生根。他们生活在像异乡的家乡里,在身份认同上面对着怎样的危机感?
他们对未来的展望如何?他们在被“同化”的同时是否也影响了当地的文化与社会?
