Filmbuilding

Sonder started as an idea — and now it’s real. Grateful to be building this new workshop with these two and what it’s about to become.

Filmbuilding: Sonder is our newest workshop in collaboration with Lincoln-Sudbury High School. Building on the successes of Lincoln-Sudbury’s 2024 Filmbuilding: Belonging project, Sonder is a student-initiated and student-created film project designed to challenge stereotypes, build understanding, and genuine friendships by pairing one Boston resident and one Lincoln/Sudbury resident together for two 24-hour home exchanges. Stay tuned on the outcome of these short films!

Filmbuilding attended the SXSW EDU a few weeks ago in Austin, Texas, and the experience was nothing short of AMAZING!! We got to learn about some truly exciting initiatives happening in education, and also get to connect with tons of people around co-creative visual storytelling for change! What a huge step forward this was for Filmbuilding!!!

IMPORTANT UPDATE — We will be postponing our Bridges of Hope online screening premiere to NEXT SUNDAY, FEB. 22 at the same time with the same link.

Our students are thrilled to share their work with the wider world, we look forward to seeing you there!! 👋 🎦

🌟Join us for a Global Filmbuilding Screening Event!🎬

Join us on February 15th for a virtual FilmBuilding Screening Event, featuring youth-created short films and filmmaker conversations from this international collaboration in our Bridges of Hope Workshop. Over the past few weeks, Filmbuilding participants from six countries - U.S.A., Finland, Estonia, Ukraine, Sweden, and Germany - have been co-creating films together surrounding the theme “Bridges of Hope.” Throughout this process, participants have been celebrating their differences across distances and creating films with that purpose in mind. This is something you don’t want to miss!

This is a worldwide VIRTUAL event, and ALL are invited to join! Tell your friends!
