Sophia, 16
Me in three words: curious, responsible, optimistic
For me, DOK Leipzig is: an opportunity to meet new people with similar interests. The chance to improve existing skills and learn new ones. To get an insight behind the scenes of the documentary film week.
Last movie that excited me (and why): “I liked The Greatest Showman because this movie has an inspiring message: It's about pursuing dreams, accepting yourself and celebrating diversity. I was particularly touched by the way in which outsiders take center stage. I was also impressed by the direction. The colorful staging and powerful music scenes perfectly captured the emotions of the story and created a stirring atmosphere. It's a movie I would watch again and again.
When I'm not watching movies, my favorite things to do are...reading (YA and romance), playing sports (karate, dancing), being socially involved (scouts, young community), making music (piano, ...), reading about history

Mia, 16
Ich in drei Worten: neugierig, vielfältig, perfektionistisch
Das DOK Leipzig ist für mich: Eine Möglichkeit eine bessere Berufsperspektive zu bekommen und neue Leute
kennenzulernen. Außerdem ist es ein Projekt was mir mehr über meine Stärken und
Schwächen sagen kann und mir Aufregung bringen kann.
Letzter Film, der mich begeistert hat (und wieso): Alles steht Kopf 2 - einer der letzten Filme, den ich gesehen hat. Die Pubertät und alles was mit daran hängt, wird wahrheitsgemäß aber gleichzeitig amüsant dargestellt. Man hat sich selbst in
einigen Szenen wiedererkannt und wusste genau was gemeint ist. Und die Animation ist natürlich auch sehr süß.. 🙂
Wenn ich nicht gerade Filme schaue, mag ich am liebsten...Lesen, Musik oder Podcast hören, etwas backen, Videospiele spielen, schlafen...
Das wünsche ich mir von den kommenden Tagen? Aufregende & neue Erlebnisse und vorallem neue Erfahrungen und Spaß. Ich möchte etwas über Journalismus sowie über mich selbst lernen und neue Erkenntnisse machen können!!

Wanda, 14
Ich in drei Worten: literaturinteressiert, empathisch, chaotisch
Das DOK Leipzig ist für mich: Ein Festival, wo Filme gezeigt werden, von denen ich sonst niemals erfahren hätte, obwohl sie mich interessieren.
Letzter Film, der mich begeistert hat (und wieso): Call me by your name, der Film bringt, dadurch das er im Sommer in Italien spielt, eine sehr schöne Stimmung rüber. Außerdem hat mir die Geschichte gefallen, auch wenn sie sehr traurig war und die Beziehung der Protagonisten etwas fragwürdig war.
Wenn ich nicht gerade Filme schaue, mag ich am liebsten...Musik hören und machen und Häkeln
Das wünsche ich mir von den kommenden Tagen? Ich würde gerne etwas lernen, aber auch Spaß dabeihaben.
