Glocal Films aims to communicate intercultural experiences, to refashion conventional views of marginal subjects and to facilitate the democratic and communal use of technology and filmic expression. Next to our independent documentaries, we work closely with local authorities, government agencies, schools and charities around the globe. Our work serves as a medium for research, implementation, do
cumentation, evaluation and training and we have extensive experience of working with vulnerable people from various backgrounds and age groups. Our multi-lingual team has developed film projects, which celebrate local culture and knowledge as well as triggering analysis to necessitate social change. Our films aim to improve living conditions by reaching out to and engaging communities into shaping services and systems. We believe in participatory filmmaking to be an effective tool to engage people around the world in exploring their lives and the world surrounding them. We aim to empower people, by giving them a voice through film as a vehicle of communication. Our approach is inclusive, democratic and learner-oriented. All participants are equally involved in the making of their own film. We provide the framework, the participants produce the content.
