ANOTHER SUMMER + Discussion
David B. Edwards, Alzbeta Kovandova-Bartonickova, CH/US/CZ/AT, 104min., OmeU

UKRAINE/RUSSIA
In Kooperation mit dem Tschechischen Zentrum Wien.

ANOTHER SUMMER captures the stories of Afghan and Ukrainian refugees in Europe. It is unique not just because of the stories it tells but also because of how it was done. The film was shot in July 2022 by first-time filmmakers from Afghanistan (from the American University of Afghanistan), Ukraine (from the Central European University), and the US (from Williams College). The Afghan and Ukrainian students were/are refugees in various European countries, and none of the students had ever made a film before.

There will be a discussion about the film and how it can encourage processes of self-historicization in the context of flight.
