Created at the same time as 'Reminiscences of a Journey to Lithuania'-and frequently overshadowed by his brother's film-'Going Home' was made by both Adolfas Mekas and his wife Pola Chapelle about the Mekas brothers' return to Lithuania after a twenty-seven-year absence. A moving portrait emerges with feasts, family, friends and "flowers for the dead and for the living in this film; it is full of flowers and songs."
