Presentation Youth Project WITHOUT BORDERS

Screening „Denkste Puppe“, followed by a film talk

In 2015, the young men Mostafa, Mojtaba, Mohebi and Alireza fled from Afghanistan

and Iran to Berlin. In 2017, Hanna Schygulla portrayed the four men in the film ‘The Unaccompanied’ – now, seven years later, she and Veronika Urban are looking for them again. Together they ask: how have the young men arrived in the present? Where do they feel they belong?

Hanna Schygulla is not waiting for film funding and a budget, she is starting NOW.  She responds to the threats of the present with mutual exchange and togetherness – in her medium, film. With her friend Veronika and a small team, she gets started and shoots whenever a spontaneous moment arises – full of discovery and playfulness,

with unbridled curiosity and humour. She grabs a mobile phone camera herself, as do the young men, if there is no other way to capture the moment. This creates closeness and authentic openings: cross-generational shots show multi-layered and many-sided encounters.

Followed by a film talk with Hanna Schygulla, Veronika Urban and the protagonists.
