WORKSHOP OFFERING

Sit back and book us now!

The Making of among us women was an exceptional journey working together from three continents and with the village Megendi over the span of six years. To transmit our learnings from this time we created a workshop format, that we offer in online and offline formats to filmmakers from all over the world:

International co-productions grow rapidly as the industry is expanding worldwide. But how do we navigate responsibly within this trend? Especially if we work across cultures, power dynamics rooted in race, gender and class can hinder a collaboration with equal agency. In this workshop we speak openly about the experience we had, the challenges we encountered, and how we (re-)established trust and connection.

We can make a tailor made program for your audience.
