How to Be At Home is a Canadian short film, directed by Andrea Dorfman and released in 2020. A sequel to her 2010 short film How to Be Alone, the film illustrates a spoken word piece by poet Tanya Davis about coping with isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The film was created for The Curve, a National Film Board of Canada film series about life during the pandemic.

The film was named to the Toronto International Film Festival's year-end Canada's Top Ten list for short films.
