“When words fail, Art speaks loudly”
Paint me your Spring: Interviews with 'De Vrolijkheid' (2025)
August 22, 202552mNL
Overview
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.
