“You can be anything you want” 

Home and Away is about the relationships between fathers and sons, and about outsiders putting down roots in Finnish society. Shawn Huff and Ervin Latimer Jr. are the children of two African-American basketball players — Leon Huff and Ervin Latimer Sr. — who moved to Finland in the 1970s. The fathers handed down their legacy of perseverance, ambition and resistance to racism, and the sons have now grown up to become Finnish social and political influencers. The sons channel the experiences of the silent fathers and transform those experiences into action, and both generations fight for a more equal world.
