These three series celebrate solidarity, resilience, and connection.
NO EASY DAY
The One Minutes Jr. team travelled to Dhaka for a five-day workshop with 15 young people living on the streets in Dhaka and receiving support in shelters by UNICEF Bangladesh. They learned filmmaking and editing skills, discovering the power of storytelling.
PASSING THE LOVE
The series employs intimate portraits of individuals, friends, families, and collectives as a tool for circulating affection and serves as a visual diary of emotional landscapes. It draws upon love — a vital force that sustains us through darkness. “Love” is imbued with profound meaning, not as pictured in Hollywood, but as a reflection of the complexities of shared human experiences and connections. The films encapsulate moments of care, longing, vulnerability, forgetting and becoming.
The work is an invitation to consider the power of love as a methodology and the importance of community, encouraging us to find solace and strength in one another.
WHEN FILMMAKING IS A FIRST LANGUAGE SPOKEN TO PROTECT
The series explores filmmaking as a site for co-creating language through relationships with knowledge. And is curated from both open call submissions and The One Minutes Collection. The selected 24 One Minutes were submitted from Argentina, China, France, Indonesia, the Netherlands, Malta, Morocco, Suriname, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The selection showcases a diverse range of perspectives and visions, highlighting the power of filmmaking as a medium for co-creating language to guide us in how we might come to know again.
