This short film features Michael Wolfe who identifies "as a black, queer, performance artist with autism", offering insight into his daily life and inner world through movement, text and song. Through Michael’s narration, the seemingly mundane task of waiting for the bus unfolds into a labyrinth of feelings, sensations, and physical expressions of his body.

The 26-year Sri Lankan civil war forced countless Eelam Tamils, including former Canadian MP Rathika Sitsabaiesan, to flee abroad. Her experiences of war and displacement ignited her advocacy. In 2013, a return to Sri Lanka unearthed traumatic memories as she faced government surveillance tied to her community's suffering. RAY OF HOPE examines the Eelam Tamil diaspora's struggle for justice and healing. Through Rathika’s journey, the film explores the shared trauma of displacement and the pursuit of accountability and hope.
