About the documentary
Doubleblooded
Synopsis
-
Half-caste, oreo, wannabe, wigger. The duality of life as a person who’s parents come from different cultures can be confusing. In the documentary Doubleblooded, the makers search for the answers about identity: how do I find my place in between two cultures?

The people
Time for a new discourse
During the last few years Black Lives Matter has awakened many people. And the beautiful thing about it is that it finally opened a new discourse, where there is room for all of us to find out who we are and what we need.
In this short documentary, we hope to give strength to our younger selves.
So we set out on a journey to discuss our experiences with other doubleblooded people and learn how to find the elements that define you.
With the hopeful outcome that we don’t longer have to scramble for answers or recognition to feel whole.
Join the conversation
During the research and making of this documentary we heard many different stories and perspectives. This has helped us tremendously in our own process and we want to continue the conversation with you!
Feel free to connect on our instagram because we would love to hear from you! We hope this is just the beginning of an ever-growing discourse on the search for identity.
Because in the end, we hope we can all say: I am and this and that, instead of feeling fragmented.

‘When my father was asked somewhere in the 80’s, why he as an African man was
having a child with a white woman, he answered: ‘We are creating the children of the
future.’

‘Being Doubleblooded brings you a two-folded image of the world and humankind, in which it comes naturally to understand both sides because of who you are.’
We're always open to collaborate with people and organizations that want to help us reshape the narrative.
