At 80 years old, artist Anton van Dalen seems to have it all: a prolific career, a house in New York's East Village, a large family, and a pigeon coop where he lovingly cares for his flock of birds. But the veneer conceals a complex story of war, migration, family rupture, and regret.  Exploring themes of belonging, forgiveness and future, Anton: Circling Home is a tender portrait of an artist, and a meditation on what it means to be home.


Filmmaker Morgan Schmidt-Feng is an alumni of SF DocFest and previously directed ON HER OWN (SF DocFest - 2015)
