Our society is organized in a hierarchical way. It often implies oppression and is a foundation of today’s world’s problems. We are fed up with that. Our activist background taught us that another way is possible: this collective doesn’t wear labels or strict roles. We work out concepts and scenarios all together, exchanging ideas in a circle. We often switch roles on set, learning from one another and supporting each other in the moments of low energy. We aim to explore and develop this attitude so that we can share it with others in the future, taught by our mistakes and wins.


We were brought together by the first story that wants to be told by us.

Synopsis

I Breathe The Air You Breathe

The film tells the stories of four activists involved in the climate movement. The core of the film are the radical actions of the protagonists, which give rise to their transformations. We accompanied them on the path of change, witnessing the emotions arising with climate awareness. The characters allow themselves to be fully in touch with their climate grief and their rage at the capitalist system.


These nameless heroes, amidst fear, hopelessness and all the foolhardiness of the world, reconstruct reality by fighting for it, out of love for it.

"I Keep my climate change fears close to the heart. That's where with time They Turn into love, empathy and non-violent direct action." Author Unknown

COURAGE MEANS LIVING
IN ACCORDANCE
WITH ONE’S VALUES

„I breathe the air you breathe” is a journey through emotions which not everyone is able to face and process. This documentary aims to touch upon a deep human connection – we all experience identical existential fears. Watching the way the protagonists deal with them may be what the viewers need to see to approach theirs.

  1. Hania, Kasia and Zbyszek join Extinction Rebellion. Working together in the media team, they document the development of the movement in Wrocław. “Maybe we should make a documentary?”

  2. Aga and Marcin come to XR introductory meeting. “We want to make a movie about you”. Michał joins us; the collective comes together and starts regular conceptual meetings. Our aim is to make a documentary suited for todays’ times - soothing, inspiring, humanizing.

  3. Filming begins. First shots on the karate camp of emerging character, Jadwiga Klata.

  4. We follow another character, Syriusz, to a set in Sweden.

  5. “Time to Rebel” protests - we decide to narrow the main plot to four characters - Jadwiga, Gaweł, Syriusz and Przemek.

  6. After two years of production, we feel that the plot threads start to find their endings. The editing phase begins.

  7. After two years of self-funded production, we start to look for funds to be able to finish it this year and cover the distribution.
