Never Alone, Always Together

Synopsis

For her documentary film NEVER ALONE, ALWAYS TOGETHER, filmmaker Joana Georgi accompanies five Berlin activists through their everyday lives for a year. Quang, Patricia, Simin, Zaza and Feline are young, idealistic and organized. They are involved in 'Fridays for Future', 'Deprivatise Deutsche Wohnen & Co.', are fighting in the Berlin hospital movement for better care work and are committed to counteracting racial violence.
They look after the community, make political art and stir up social media. By means of Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, they are connected globally and bring their ideas via smartphones to the hearts of their peers. In an increasingly divided and polarized world, they are showing ways out of political lethargy and represent a new generation that is raising their voices, free from thought prohibitions and dogmatic legacies to stand up for a fairer future.
With NEVER ALONE, ALWAYS TOGETHER, director Joana Georgi provides an authentic look at the difficult path that activism often entails and directs the focus on the loving, everyday stories of the struggle for social change. In doing so, she breaks down clichés about social movements and creates a hopeful film whose protagonists firmly believe that radical change is not only possible, but necessary.
