Jarpy: My Home From Venezuela To Bristol

This is a story of one of many Venezuelans who have had their lives affected by the recent situation in Venezuela. By no means the average expat, Jarpy’s life is dominated by his passion of longskate, a strange variation of skateboarding. Jarpy, My Home is an opportunity to learn about a situation far from the UK, and its effect on the life and family of one man who now calls Bristol home.

My take

A intimate portrait of resilience and passion. Follow Jarpy as he rebuilds his life in Bristol, finding freedom and identity through longskate culture while navigating displacement from Venezuela. Uplifting without being sentimental—this is about finding home in unexpected places.
