KATJA RIEMANN, RENOWNED GERMAN ARTIST AND ACTOR, MADE HER DIRECTORIAL DEBUT WITH “AND HERE WE ARE…A FILM SCHOOL IN MORIA.” THE FILM TELLS THE STORY OF REFOCUS MEDIA LABS- A FILM SCHOOL IN EUROPE'S BEST-KNOWN REFUGEE CAMP: MORIA ON LESBOS. HERE, YOUNG REFUGEES HAVE BEEN LEARNING TO EXPRESS THEIR VIEW OF THE WORLD IN PICTURES SINCE 2018. DIRECT AND UNADULTERATED PHOTOS AND FILMS ARE CREATED FROM A VERY PERSONAL PERSPECTIVE.
IN THE MEANTIME, THE YOUNG, HIGHLY MOTIVATED FILM STUDENTS WORK WITH INTERNATIONAL TV STATIONS SUCH AS AL JAZEERA, CNN AND THE BBC. IN THE MEDIA LAB, THEY FIND NEW MEANING IN LIFE, AND IN FILM, A PERSPECTIVE FOR THE FUTURE. THE COMMITTED, SURPRISING DOCUMENTARY DEBUT OF ACTRESS KATJA RIEMANN SHOWS WHAT FILM IS CAPABLE OF.
THE FILM HAD ITS WORLD PREMIERE AT THE HUMAN RIGHTS FILM FESTIVAL BERLIN, 2021, AND IS CURRENTLY ON THE FILM FESTIVAL CIRCUIT.
