Berlin-based zero one film, France’s Idéale Audience and Belgium’s Kwassa Films have joined forces with several broadcasters to produce the marathon TV project, 24H EUROPE – WE ARE THE FUTURE, which follows 60 protagonists in 25 European countries, focusing on the hopes, fears and desires of young people between the ages of 15 and 30.
No less than 45 European directors (including Thomas Riedelsheimer, Pia Marais, Mila Turajlic, Alexandru Solomon, Dane Komljen, Matthias Luthardt, Hanna Doose and Svetoslav Stoyanov) and their crews spent four days in mid-June at locations from Iceland to Bulgaria gathering material for this expedition into the European continent.
The TV event will be broadcast in real time, uninterrupted, for 24 hours from 6 a.m. on 4 May 2019, just a month after the UK officially leaves the European Union and only three weeks before the next European Parliament elections.
