Janis Balodis investigates the process of negotiating belonging in his third play of The Ghost Trilogy which is , My Father's Father, where the children of Latvian displaced persons' process of belonging alternates between the two homes—the host country, Australia, and the country of their parents' birth, Latvia, and comes to an end where they regard Australia as their country to which they and their parents belong.
