Short Film: HOMESICK (HD)

[@amirasayyad146]

Home is not a place... home is a feeling

[@yo-hs8ll]

I strongly agree.

[@akshayjadhavdeshmukh2685]

True

[@Mariamfa_]

I totally agree with you 🥺❤️

[@katherine123_]

Completly agree with that. 🥹💖

[@hameed_ludba]

I suppressed the homesick feeling, but in past few days, I miss home very much and I'm scared of my future... whether I will achieve my goals or not...

[@Dragonfly262]

Have faith , give your best..you will achieve it. I miss home too .

[@cooltoad691]

I don't know if I am right but I think even if you don't you are going to be okay.

It's harder than I thought would be.... Specially if you're somewhere with a TOTALLY different culture.

Shirin Dehghani you’re right it is hard

[@RichardTheEagle]

It's hard when you're far from home and don't even know if you'll ever go back again 😭

[@Ore890]

It's sooo hard. Especially if you are the only person from your continent in the town you live in

[@soybad6513]

I miss how my mom wake me up early in the morning, missing my dog happily greeting me whenever i come home, missing talking until 11pm with my sister, missing mother's food, missing my bedroom, missing the people, missing every minor thing that i nevet had noticed.

Life is tough for us students. But you know its those sacrifices that are worth it in the end. Its been 1 month i am here in canada and trust me it is very tough. I dont have friends here and i find it difficult making friends in the university. Assignments are tough and difficult. I miss my grandparentd alot. It sucks to do my own laundry, make my own food, go to uni when you know you are all alone. But i saw an oscar speech once where mathew said ' When you got god you got a friend and that is you ' and this motivates me. It has been a tough journey and trust me it will be, but its worth it in the end i guess? I understand all of you and this pain sucks but all you guys need to know that it will be okay :D

[@kavinayavijayan323]

J0keriznogoud I feel the same way u do.... it hurts so bad to have no one around... bt I too hope atleast it ll b worth in the end... good luck

I'm a high school student but have to stay in a dorm and my house from the school is really far away (i'm talking 2 hours of flight and 2 days of roadtrip) but your comment just made me realize leaving something you so loved and cherished so much from your childhood until now is a pain i get it, but that's the sacrifice i have to make for me to have better life in the future 😖😢😭

Yeah, first you might explore the new world then the homesick kicks in and you start searching for Malay restaurants or something similar to mamak. When you do finally visit Malaysia, you'd realise, you don't miss the country, you miss the people that makes it your home.

[@yehezkielrickjoyner6843]

[@faryalhuma9522]

[@IFuckEmoKids]

I’m away from home at the moment. Almost 2 years I went after my heart and left home away The thing I miss the most is my family, it’s hard without them. Even with the Skype it’s just not the same as getting a real hug from you’re parents. And nothing feels the same or taste

[@Coffee_Fuelled_Jerk]

I am in the same boat. I feel like every single day is a torture, but at the same time I cannot just say "Alright, toots! These past 8 years have been real but I am going back home now" to what I think is the love of my life. I really don't know what to do and it is eating me on the inside...

[@IFuckEmoKids]

NooTz its sounds like you’re in a different situation then I am , we’re going to check the options to move to where I feel more comfortable near to my family soon . If you think that’s something you’re partner will consider as an option.. you should try to put it on the table . I don’t see a reason you should compromise you’re happiness for others.

[@_victoriaaa_]

I just graduated high school and time flies...soon I will have to pack my bags and leave the place I call home, the small apartment in which I have been living for my entire life, the city that I love so much, even the weather, but most importantly- my family, my best friends, everything. If I am already homesick now, can not imagine what it is gonna be like when I actually leave...

[@DokoFr_]

I am 5 days away from going boarding, and it's not just that, it's location is 2days from my home... The locality, people, all are different... I always suffered from homesickness since I was a kid, it's not easy to stay away from home... Specially when ur parents give such a care that no one would and u start to miss that food u get, the hug before going to school, family events... Even though I know living in a boarding school is temporary it still leave me crying under the blanket every night...

[@ungkuzoeanysa]

just searched 'homesick' because I was feeling well, homesick :p brought tears to my eyes, agreeing with everything, from start to end, but changing them from sad to happy tears 😊 thanks for making this Tasha! I miss milo 😭 haha

[@sparklingwater7639]

I left my hometown when I was 16... I miss my family so much. There’s no other place like home. I wish I could go back to my hometown, I wish I could wake up in my own room, I wish I could talk to my mom everyday like we used to when I was in the secondary school... I miss these times. Nothing can ever replace a home. I live with my roommate, but this house just don’t feel like home..

[@DiegoFigueroa11]

I visited my hometown not to long ago it upset me very much how much the place changed. Apartment buildings were built in neighborhoods that I use to play with my friends, traffic is out of this world nothing like it use to be. Just comes to show no matter what happens, life goes on. Memories are valuable it is essentially what can be cherished the most.

[@kristinallysonlim]

reading the comment section on here brings me SO much comfort and makes me feel i really aren’t alone. i’ve always lived in my comfort zone, with the people i considered my home. this is the only time in my entire life that i decided to be away from them and today marks my first month in a foreign country. i miss my parents, my dog, my friends, and our daily conversations at the dinner table. i never knew how better it was being a kid until i had to face the real world... but i went here with the mindset that all this will be worth it in the end. so i hope it will be all better in a few months time. i hope it will be better for all of you guys too.

Im 13 and i was in florida with my grandma for 5 days and i felt very homesick

[@JolyneLP]

This made me cry even harder. I just got home from church and during the mass I was stopping myself from crying. I keep praying that God will give me strength in facing and continuing this new chapter of my life in a completely diff. Environment. I just moved from the Philippines to Guam just 2months ago. At first i was doing fine and thought that this is a new start a new beginning for me and my family's future. But then lately I've been feeling empty and lost. I grew up with my mama,lolo, lola, sister and brother and I've left many besties back Home and now i live with my papa and met relatives on Papa's side. I know I should be happy for I got a chance now to be with my papa (i grew up in a broken family) which I've wished for so long but I realized being far away from the people you used to live with, used to talk with and used to hang out with is really sad. That why everytime I hear and talk to Filipinos here somehow i feel at home and can genuinely smile even for a short amount of time. Its really hard but I guess i just need to be strong and think that all of this is for there future and mine.

[@theicequeen32]

Im in the Army and i can attest to the feeling of homesickness. Its terrible and can break the strongest people. I miss my family so so bad. I smell the clothes I brought almost daily to smell home. The soda and food tastes different. I brought my laptop to pass the time to get home and now, I have new friends to help me get through the days. Talking about it helps! Distracting yourself helps. Making new memories helps. I still cry sometimes because I miss my loved ones. Because I cant hug or talk to them face to face. But I also know they'll be there when I get back, happy and ready to see me again. Just remember that if you're homesick as well. We all get it sometime :)

[@Chico_Fuerte14]

Very relatable. I am originally from Canada and recently moved to Australia on a working/holiday visa and it is such a drastic change to make. I always get home sick and miss my life back in Canada where I have everything ( my own car, my house, my bed, my family, my friends) my heart tells me to go back. Sometimes we have to lose it all to appreciate what we have. Going back home in a month. See you soon Canada, can't wait to be back HOME

[@daalig6327]

I miss home, seeing my Dad and Mom and sister and brother. Now we are older it's not the same. But still when I visit my parents the warmth never goes away.

[@charlottepatton4353]

Honestly this video is definitely what I'm going through. I lived in the city when I was little, but when I was 7, we moved to a small town upstate. I wasn't a huge fan of the town but I made good friends and grew up with them. I joined drama club and found a family there. But when I found out we were going back to the city, I was thrilled. I loved it there. And so two months ago, we moved back to the city after living in that town for 8 years. I had to leave all my friends behind, my drama club, and my town. Now I've been living here for two months and I'm incredibly homesick. My new school isn't turning out to be what I expected. The teachers and school itself are bad. I've made new friends, but I miss my old friends and old teachers. I miss that I just had to walk 2 blocks to get to my school or to my best friend's house. I miss the snow covered branches in my backyard in the winter. I miss the routine I had there. I miss the people and things I left behind. Winter is going to be tough for me because that was my favorite time of year in my old town. I am so lost right now.

[@dolfiniti]

4 years later how did it go? Did you overpower the feeling of being homesick. If so how because i really need it

[@britneychen3057]

I'm in eighth grade right now. I have been in Taiwan for the past 2 years because of my dad's job. I have a whole 177 days until I get to go home, to San Diego, CA. I count down the days until I can go back to where I feel safe and happy. Home. Yes, I am genetically Taiwanese, and yes, I can speak Chinese, and yes, I am at an American school that follows the American curriculum, but..................... it doesn't feel the same... Whenever I say "I gotta go home, it stings my heart to say it, because I know it really isn't "home." It's not that Taiwan isn't a totally awesome country or anything, it's just that...... home has been taken by another place already. Home is not a place, it's a feeling. This video really hits me right in the heart. Thank you for making such an amazing video. This video really means a lot to me. For those of you going through this as well, just remember, you're not alone.

[@elisu8185]

I left my grandparents village 3 days ago in Turkey, I stayed for a month all my aunts cousins from my moms side came. I miss it so much it’s insane I feel like throwing up in my house. It doesn’t have the roads with bumps and it doesn’t have the smell of animals and watermelon from our neighbours. I’m going again next year but I have a wait quite a while . I love that place so much and seeing this brought a tear to my eye as it explains what I want to say and it makes me feel relief knowing there are others who feel like me

[@Narniavalour]

I have spent last 7 years of my life in Australia chasing who-knows-what. I’ve missed so many priceless moments that I could’ve spent with my friends and family back in hometown. Finally, going back for good. Australia has been a blessed country for me and I have achieved and learned a lot while studying and working here but there’s never been a single day when I haven’t missed my home, Punjab.

[@iconic7339]

The “you’ll be ok” made me want to cry. I moved all the way from Chicago to El Paso because my step dad is in the the military. Even though it’s already been a month, I’m homesick every day.

This is greatly executed, and it summarized my feelings into a short video. Anybody here feels confused when you consider 2 countries your home, but when you are on either one, you long for the other.

[@gio-lx9gb]

i am currently an exchange student in france and i have been here for 2 months. even if i know that i will retourn home in 3 months and an half, i constantly feel homesick and empty. i have already many good memories here, but that feeling of not being at home surrounded by my loved ones is always with me. in the future, i hope to be able to truly enjoy what i am doing here because it's an unique experience. for everyone that feels the same, cheer up! we can do it!

[@Hippieinthewoods]

I am really missing home, we moved to central NY state 6 years ago & up until maybe a year back I was ok... Then, I just started to cry at times when I was alone. I remember sitting by the river, going to the store with my mom, 2 get 2 cookies & a soda (to me it meant something) & watching lightning a lot... It sounds very stupid I know, but I miss the lightning very very much... If this area had lightning like the midwest, it would be a lot better... It almost never storms here, only 1 storm has had lightning worth mentioning, I would give a lot to move back, but I am not living on my own, my parents built a house & my sister's family got a one & fixed it up... We came out here for me & I can't say anything, cause I would make everyone very mad at me... Plus, the place we use 2 be is maybe 950 miles away...

[@annatashasaifol]

Thank you for sharing your story with us! Anything that brings you comfort in the form of nostalgia is NOT stupid. I'm glad that I am not alone and I hope that you know that you're DEFINITELY not alone!

[@Hippieinthewoods]

Thanks... :)

[@s.w.4411]

I think exactly these so personal memories and beautiful details hurt most. So it's not stupid at all!

[@juanapaula5207]

This got me crying like a baby. I’m homesick even though I live with my family but in a different place, however it’s not the same anymore. We are more isolated from one another, everyone mind their own business. It sucks when you feel you don’t belong to any place in the world. I wish we could go back to my country and have back my relationships with my mom and brother just like it was before we moved in.

[@aerajoyce5346]

This video is very powerful. I am currently abroad for an internship and it's my 3rd month here out of 5 months. During my first night in Vietnam, that's when the feeling of homesickness hit me: I was alone and will be alone for the next months of my life here. Everyday I was just trying to survive you know? I was always just trying to wake up, get myself some instant noodles or canned drinks and then sleep hoping that when I wake up the next day, I will already be home. But now that I've realized I was already halfway there, I can't imagine how I have gotten through those days. It felt like those days just swiftly flew me by. Until now I am still homesick, yes. It's inevitable. You can't force to detach yourself with your new environment just because you wanted to be kept in touch with home. You just have to embrace the life you are in now. Because when you finally learn how to love where you're at, even if you are a thousand miles away from the land you grew up in, this place where you are now can also be your home. For all the people out there who are away to study, have an internship or work, we can do this! We'll get through this. :)

[@malahatfatima]

Nothing has described this word better than this video. I'm sobbing, this is more than beautiful.

[@s.w.4411]

This feels very true! I just did not exactly get to that happy place at the end. Right now (after 2 years not being at home) I feel like I have no home anymore. I am not the same person I was before I moved and I am still not fitting in my new environment. But a few weeks ago I realised that I will miss my "new home" and I never thaught I would say that. So I might be on the right way to the happy ending. It feels very good to know that I am not alone in this. Thank you!

[@elimarjosephgalvan3457]

It’s 2019 now. I didn’t understand this video when I was a freshman in high school. I graduated from the class of 2019 and now I’m studying abroad. I have been in the Phillipines for about a couple months now and I feel so homesick. It’s true though, my home is where all my loved ones are at. I don’t miss Hawaii, I miss the people in Hawaii. I miss all those crazy moments, the time where only my bestfriend and I can laugh for no reason. It’s been a struggle since I don’t know how so speak the language but I guess I found new friends. It’s been hard since I guess I only have a few. I am not used to the culture shock. I’m used to having a lot of people around me. There is a lot of people around me but I feel so alone like I’m drowning. 4 more months until I can go back home. Then redo it all over again.

I miss home so so much! I haven’t been able to live at home for 2 years. I miss my parents and I miss my pets and my house and everything inside of my home. I miss my hometown. Hopefully one day I will be allowed to return but I don’t know when.

I’ve been living in Germany for the last year and a half and just got back from being home for 2 weeks for Christmas. It was hard trying to find time to see everyone and do everything I wanted to do yet it still feels like I didn’t spend enough time with the people I cherish most. I needed to see this video. It helped me not feel so alone. I still have these homesick feelings and need them to stop but I guess that comes with time.

This is the most comforting video I've ever watched. I used to watch it all the time on my exchange to New Zealand and it always made me feel better. Now, I have to watch it again because I'm homesick to New Zealand..😉Anyway, thank you for the wonderful video❤️

[@petekfikretova3685]

I watched this video a year ago when i moved to another country... i was looking for a video that i could relate to, i was crying every night, praying every night it would be over, Ive lost alot of friends and also my happiness... here i am a year ago i remember watching this crying, i can’t believe i overcomed my homesickness i still miss home but things are abit better now.

[@evasavaaage1404]

it's very hard for me. I had spent 5 years of my life in Canada, with my best friends, my friends, and my bff. My dad warned us that we would maybe move. I was so happy. I loved moving. I just loved meeting new people, and changing my everyday life! On the last day of school, it hit me. I was never going to see this place and all the people with it anymore. I cried and cried, and I still do. now, I am in Ghana (Africa) with a totally different culture and it feels like nobody likes me here. I wanted to move, but now that I did, I want to go home. My house with a fireplace and my room. my single bed that is yet so small but so comfortable, my couch, my school, my friends houses, my friends, my best friends, and my bff. moving used to be easy. I had moved two times before ( three but. I can't remember one of them ) Washington /Paris Paris/Canada. it was super easy. I would love being a seven year old kid again. then, I would be able to re live all the amazing moments I had in my home, Canada.

I've been away from Philippines for 12 years and the passing of my grandparents really made me feel homesickness. I miss the authentic Filipino feeling and the amazing food. I used to live near the beach in California but it was never the same as living near the beach in the Philippines.

[@yernieyip]

This was SO GOOD. Really tugged at my heartstrings. Please make more short films!!

[@annatashasaifol]

+yernieyip Thank you so much for watching! I hope to make more :D

[@lowang9708]

Man i went on a vacation not even left the country... I just missed home so bad, i got a fever and I thought im really sick and shit...i thought I'm gonna die so i came back and boom! everything us alright i didn't even feel that fever i was ok the moment my mom opened the door for me. Idk maybe I'm just a man who just can't live away from home. I just feel so much responsibility knowing that im the only child they had. I always feel the need to keep them between my eyes.

[@thedreamer4222]

Feel like crying whenever I see this. Im just homesick as hell and Idk what to do with it. See I dont want that feeling to disappear cuz I always wanna make sure that my home doesnt get replaced. But it somehow also makes me a coward who wants to escape all the time. And yeah I just wanna go back to a point in life... before it got fucked up... That used to be my reality.

[@husnah1000]

My second time watching and I still can't get over this video. Now I feel homesick as well 😢

[@ibrahimali-jt4gg]

i felt so homesick that i fought my parents and came back home only to find out that home just didnt feel like home anymore, people had changed,i got expelled from my school and now i feel like i have made a bad decision by coming back and all i wanna do now is go back to london. i was only 14 at the time. Trust me guys homesickness eventually goes away.

[@sulagnanandi]

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I recently moved from Edmonton, Canada to Toronto, Canada. Even though it doesn't sound like a far move, I really miss my friends, especially my best friend. I'm really glad I found a video I can relate to. I really hope I can make Toronto feel like home. 🏡 😊 🏡

[@Luna-zb9tf]

I miss home... Even though I say the same three words everytime when my family calls me, like a mantra they never care. I dont like where I'm right now. All I want is to go home, but what can I do if they want me to focus on my career. I'm so fadeup of living like this, so I'm taking a decision tonight and I'm sure they will have to live in guilt, blaming themselves every single day.

[@bhavnathoidingjam2809]

R u okay??? Hope u will write back

[@yodady4]

This video hit me hard, being in the military the number one thing that always was on my mind was homesickness. No matter who i hung out with or where i would go to, it would always feel like that i was in the wrong place. When I was deployed overseas that was when homesickness truly hit me hard. I would always be skyping my family and my girlfriend, and the more I talked to them the more homesick I would get but then once you do final get to go home for even a small visit it makes everytime you go home even more treasured

[@MamaAkina]

Tomorrow Morning I fly out and leave home. I dont miss anything here except the familiarity, but its still jarring to know I wont see it again. If you are leaving home, watch this video.

[@kwkwkw8]

I’m a child of a diplomat so I have to travel a lot. Sometimes I get lucky and live in my homecountry for a bit but I always have to move so I can never really keep the friends I have.. it really hurts being away from my family because I can’t see my cousins who are like siblings to me, grow up. And my family can’t see me graduate or achieve the things I hopefully will achieve. And the school systems are different..here it’s sooo bad they don’t know how to teach it I’m barely making it I’m even failing a couple of classes. I just want to go home. I’ve been living here in Germany for two years now yet I still feel homesick.

[@jana.a3342]

I’m 3 months away from home from my parents and my friends it’s been hard to get used to a completely different environment being away from my mother made me so miserable especially when I get sick or stressed it’s where I need her the most I need her to be here with me I miss waking up in my bed at home and having my morning coffee with my mother and older sister I miss my mother’s cooking her telling the same story three times her smiling at me trying to make me feel good I want to go home.

[@emilychan3747]

Love how this video hits some awfully real emotions, but I especially love the reminder that our stories from our time abroad are going to be some of the best darn ones we'll ever tell people about. Shoutout from a Malaysian in Denver. Keep up the great work! :)

[@eramazmi3480]

I have been away from home since one year only because of studies and even I don't know whatever I am doing whether it will be worthy or not. I miss my home where I left my comfort ,my happiness, my soul and my loved ones.

[@nicolesoriano6441]

this video became my coping mechanism every time i get homesick. really!! thank you for putting up this video. it really helps 💗

[@gayatrigarud2308]

this relates to me so much....I am away from home for studies and literally crying because I am feeling home sick....Thank you so much this helped a lot

[@PhilipHeuser]

great short film. Describes my actual situation.

[@Snehadev1028]

I don't know y I'm crying multiple tyms by remembering my home n my family....

[@cat_lol]

my mum is away on a trip and im staying in my grannys house atm. i feel so dumb crying about her being gone for the next few days because im coming home to my house everyday anyway to feed my cats. its the feeling that no one is home to greet me and it just makes me feel so depressed. its also that i have separation anxiety from my mum because of past trauma. im just hoping this week/weekend goes by quickly

[@yco67]

it may sound a bit pessimistic but after some time the need of being with your friends and family back home outweighs your goals of being abroad.. and if its like more than a year it really kicks in.. before i was feeling home when i wasnt home.. but now its not and im so exhausted..

[@forest_nymph24]

I'm so homesick right now. I just can's stop crying. I moved out of my parents' house to a new city just over a month ago.

[@GrattedCarrot]

First you felt sooo excited to go out from your home, once you outside, living in a total different culture, start a new daily routinities, try to built new relation with people which some of em unable to accepting, its really hard. I miss my home, yet i’ve reached 65%of my goals here

[@sharifazamjonov3100]

It's a great film about homesickness. I'm watching and crying at the same time and I'm not in my home country. But after this film, I hope l'll get better

[@Mariamfa_]

I moved to the U.S 6 years ago to complete my degree. I found myself in the U.S. I enjoyed every moment even the hardest moments. I moved back to my country after I finished my degree and I can not believe that I do not feel like I am home again. I can not communicate effectively with people in my country. My family members totally changed. It's 8 months now and still I can not deal with it.

[@datcuteone5501]

Moving for uni is extremely hard. There hasn't been a day where I haven't missed my family, especially my mom. I've spent this last semester crying every minute that I'm alone, when I wake up, before I go to class, before I go to sleep, when I eat and even when I shower. It's been difficult living without my family, I hope all of this will be worth it at the end.

[@dumbokiddo3943]

Finally found something i needed really bad! It's been 7 months since i've moved to a new town, my parents don't live with me and it's still extremely hard for me to adjust here, but this made me feel so better and made me want to live again. thank you for making this video ❤ i hope I'll be able to cope with my homesickness

[@stargirl_lee]

this perfectly captured how ive been feeling, thank u for this beautiful art

[@jaquelinemurguia9929]

I feel more comfortable when I realize that I am not the only one. Sometimes I would like to abandon my dreams but I will be brave

[@jungamy795]

this video made me cry, but thank you for planting a little seed of hope in me :)

[@WeegieMovies]

Having moved from a small(ish), very friendly place where, 20 years later I am still friends with people I started my first day of primary school with, to having lived in London for the last couple of years, I can definitely relate to this. Very nice short film!
