Event Summary for applicants
Can you catch the majestic essence of rural, everyday life in a documentary? It might be a difficult task but we intend to find out together with you. In a world where the skills to properly catch the world around us on camera is getting more and more available to everyone we want to give you the chance to gain more insights about this very topic.
Next to the filmmaking, we will also dive deeper into rural culture and its values that impact cultures across Europe. In many European countries, young people are moving to the big cities, away from the rural areas that play a significant role in the preservation of the local culture. As a result that very culture is dying. We want to give you the tools to create a documentary exploring some of the reasons for this happening.
Therefore we delve into the art of filmmaking, and direct our lenses on the rural areas of Sweden, recording the difficulties and the blessings of living in them. Our goal is not only to educate and create a dialogue around documentaries and cultural topics but also provide inspiration and experiences that you can carry with you beyond the scope of this program.
We welcome young adults from Estonia, Greece, Slovakia, Spain, and Sweden to join us on an unforgettable 9-day journey set in the beautiful landscapes of Sweden. Over the course of nine days, you’ll participate in a variety of activities ranging from filmmaking sessions set amidst rural Orsa to team building activities and some surprises.
The exchange provides a unique opportunity for you to meet, share and learn from like-minded individuals across Europe, whilst fostering an environment of respect, inclusion, and community. So, whether you’re participating in a group discussion or recording swedes in everyday-life, you’ll create connections that last a lifetime.
Join us on this fun journey where we peel back the layers of rural areas of Sweden, develop a deeper understanding of filmmaking, and immerse ourselves in the soothing essence of Swedish forests. Be ready to challenge yourself, grow, and discover something new. Sweden awaits you!
