For the Cambridge Festival 2021, writer and filmmaker, Annie Zaidi, answers questions from young people about ideas of home and identity. We spoke about many things including the relationship between home, age, and gender; how we carry our homes with us; and whether the idea of home has been transformed by lockdown.
A bit of housekeeping:
YouTube guidelines mean that this video is required to be set as Made for Kids, a setting that sadly disables comments and chat. We’d love to hear from you though, so if you’d like to get in touch we’re on Twitter @CUPBookshop @anniezaidi @Cambridge_Fest #camfest and Facebook [ Ссылка ]

Cambridge University Press Bookshop is closed at the moment (we hope to reopen late April 2021), but if you’re interested in ordering Annie’s book you can do so through Bookshop.org and help support our shop and independents across the country: [ Ссылка ]
