RADJ: On Roots & Rooting is a personal documentary by Nadine Haselier.
In 1975, 28-year-old Radj left Suriname for the Netherlands to build a new home and better life for her young family. Two generations later, granddaughter Nadine explores her Indo-Surinamese roots based on the story of her Nani. What can Radj’s journey tell us about the meaning of home and planting roots in foreign soil? And what does it mean to have roots in multiple places?
