COMMISSIONED PROJECT
Film documentary
I:I Children Action — founded in 1994, is a Swiss humanitarian organization dedicated to transforming the lives of children and teenagers living in the most extreme circumstances. Their approach is rooted in strategic, long-term impact—developing, implementing, and monitoring projects that truly make a difference.
I:II In 2014, we were commissioned to produce a documentary that would give a powerful voice to children facing life-or-death challenges. Premiering in February 2015 at Children Action’s Gala Dinner in Geneva, this film was designed not just to tell stories but to prompt understanding and inspire urgent action.
I:III Over three months, we traveled to Peru, Cameroon, Vietnam, and Geneva—documenting the realities faced by children caught in adversity, yet brimming with resilience. From bustling markets in Hanoi to remote villages in Cameroon, each story reveals the urgent need for support—and the potential for change when committed individuals and organizations step up.—

The Heart of the Project:
This documentary is a call to act. It aims to foster empathy, not just emotion, by helping viewers truly understand the struggles and hopes of these children. It’s a reminder that awareness must lead to action —because real change happens when we recognize our power to make a difference, and choose to do so.
