Homecoming is a cinematic collaboration between Adelaide-born composer Matt Laing and videographer Denis Smith, featuring the iconic Bluff at Encounter Bay on South Australia’s Fleurieu Peninsula.
​
The narrative of the film follows my work From Home written in 2020/21, a piece that depicts life on the Bluff across 4 movements; the birds, the reeds, the lizard and the granite.

The culmination of two years of filming and recording, this original work will have its premiere presentation at Victa Cinema on 7 June  2026 as part of the Victor Harbor Winter Whale Festival with live music performed by three of Adelaide’s finest string players: Alison Rayner (violin), Justin Julian (viola), and David Moran (cello).
