Encounter In Four Chapters

“Encounter in Four Chapters” is an interdisciplinary and staged documentation in which eight young people with various religious backgrounds appear. Some of whom have a refugee experience. They talk in four chapters about their everyday life struggles, beliefs, dreams, desires, and ideas. The work is the result of creative and collective process and exchange which happened during a interdisciplinary workshop project. In the film animation and elements of physical theatre are implemented as additional stylistic devices.
