Welcome to the ‘Our Planet Digital Storytelling Festival 2023’ which is hosted at Goldsmiths, University of London and brings together digital stories from around the globe.
We are celebrating the eleventh year of The Critical Connections project and we are delighted that some lead educators and schools have been with us from the start and others have joined along the way.
The young filmmakers have explored the theme of ‘Our Planet’ in imaginative, critical, and radical ways engaging with research, stories, poetry, and artwork to create their multilingual films.
As well as focusing on environmental issues these films tell stories about our roots, our homes, our emotions, and ways to connect and be hopeful. The festival shares the stories these young filmmakers have told about their local and global communities and their futures.
There are 27 languages included in the digital stories and lead educators have worked with young participants (6 – 18 years old) across 21 educational institutions (primary, secondary, community-based complementary) and 8 countries (Australia, Cyprus, England, Germany, India, Italy, Malaysia and Taiwan). There will be short in-person presentations at the festival or pre-recorded introductions or slides before each film.
