Letters from somewhere
Letters from somewhere is an ongoing project by the Bagamoyo Film Collective. It deals with intercultural learning through filmmaking. The debates within the process of creation are about certain concepts, differences and similarities. From specific details of locality to general assumptions, the web-series deals with a variety of topics, places and views. The episodes are results of shared experiences by artists, anthropologists, filmmakers and interested people.
If you want to produce your own Letter from somewhere and want it to be published on our site, or have further questions, please contact us here
