\"Homecoming\" features footage of Beyoncé in her first rehearsal post-pregnancy, as she speaks about the challenges of getting back into it after undergoing a difficult pregnancy.

\"It's my first time back home on the stage after giving birth. I'm creating my own homecoming, and it's hard,\" she said. \"There were days that I thought I'd never be the same, I'd never be the same physically, my strength and endurance would never be the same.\"
