What elevates Dear Home of Scars is the vulnerability that leaks through the margins. There’s a subtle but persistent sense that Mahama feels the burden of becoming a symbolic figure for both the Ghanaian art scene and the communities surrounding these projects. The film observes him not just as an artist with vision, but as someone trying to live up to the moral implications of his own success, producing a film that fascinatingly recognizes that charisma can emerge from vulnerability as much as authority. - S/W Curator, Jason Sondhi
