Internationalism Within Us
During COVID 19, Hannah collaborated with Projekt Europa, Maria Aberg, David Ridley, Dominic Applewhite, and the company of the cancelled RSC production of “Europeana” and “Project Europa” season, to create a short film about finding connection in isolation, and how we might connect across time and space when we are isolated from one another, and what that might look and feel like. This is that film.
In March 2021, artistic director Maria Aberg and Ayse Tashkiran, movement director, contacted the EUROPEANA company to ask a question.
‘After all we’ve lived through in the last year – grief, isolation, hardship, uncertainty – we started wondering: what do we need as artists? What do we long for? And with closed borders all around the world, extreme distances both actual and mental, political polarisation and unimaginable violence and injustice - how can we create a meaningful connection with the places we want to visit, with audiences, communities, artists?: What does international collaboration mean to you right now?'
In response to this question, performer Hannah Bristow and composer David Ridley, created this beautiful and poignant short film, in collaboration with the rest of the company members. Special thanks also to Projekt Europa guest director of photography, Dominic Applewhite.
We’re sharing it here, in celebration of International Migrants Day and the multitude of narratives and we each hold within us from our travels, histories and aspirations. In times when we are forced to turn inward, we find that international connection prevails in the face of isolation, lockdown, and division.
