“If You Lived Here, You’d Be Home By Now” is about the divisiveness over land, the relationship of public and private space in small-town America, and the concept of home. Using documentary strategies, landscape stills are juxtaposed to stories “ripped from the headlines” of a small-town newspaper. The struggle over public space described in the stories reflects universal concepts of space, privacy and property ownership.
