One road in, one road out is an ongoing hybrid docufiction film following five weddings in five coal mining communities: Breza (Bosnia and Herzegovina), Armutçuk near Karadeniz Ereğli (Türkiye), Kozani (Greece), Newcastle (New South Wales, Australia), and the Rhondda Valley (Wales, UK).

The work uses weddings, ancient shared social rites invoking creation, possibility, and renewal, as a window through which to enter the existential transformations ongoing within these coal mining communities.
