Paint me your Spring: Interviews with 'De Vrolijkheid'

"When words fail, Art speaks loudly"

2025-08-22 nl 52m
Documentary
A talking heads documentary about young asylum seekers in the Netherlands, given space to express themselves through art. From poetry and rap to DJing and photography, it follows Auguste as he observes moments where language barriers are broken through the connections that creativity makes possible. Volunteers and organizers also reflect on what it means to create together, to share fragments of identity, to find recognition, and to make life in the asylum center a little more bearable.
