Online expo ‘My freedom-your freedom’

 

‘My freedom – your freedom’ is a digital and permanent version of the eponymous, temporary exhibition on freedom created by young people and refugees from The Hague. Throughout November, the exhibition was on display at the Beeld en Geluid museum in The Hague.

 

Twelve young people aged between 17 and 24 worked with refugees in The Hague to create their own exhibition on freedom. They watched fragments of interviews with people who have experienced unfreedom and talked to each other about the meaning of freedom. They creatively translated their ideas into photos, animations and videos.

Part of the group made short animation films with the assignment; make a stop-motion film based on your thoughts. Watch the results below.

 

 

The youngsters made short videos using (free) video editor Open Shot. Assignment was:

 

 

A.     Choose one or more of eight quotes from interviews with:

 

  • Veterans
  • People who lived through WW2
  • Refugees who have lived in the Netherlands for some time

 

B.      Make a short film based on your own footage. 

 

 

With this exhibition, we hope to inspire teachers, project and education staff as well as all those interested in oral history to get started themselves and reuse the source material in a creative and appropriate way. Oral history can be an excellent way to shed new light on various topics or to be used as a trigger for conversation/discussion on pressing and current issues in society. A manual and step-by-step plan will be published shortly on our Education page.
