Global Collaborative

Project status: completed.

Global Collaborative ( www.yesworld.org/collaborate/global-collaborative ) commissioned Major Arc to make a documentary on a week-long retreat in Thailand for activists from over nineteen countries. The retreat was a Global Collaborative 'World Jam', a gathering of young leaders committed to internal, interpersonal and systemic change in their homelands and internationally. Shot on an organic farm close to the Myanmar border, this was a time of personal excavation, playful cooperation, and mystery gifts.

Fighting injustice left, right and centre, without stopping to take a break, we can perpetuate the injustices we see in the world...[here] we let go some of the things we hold in isolation.

- Global Collaborative member (and NZ Labour Party MP) Kiritapu Allen

Emily McDowell made a short documentary on the Thailand World Jam for the organisation’s distribution.
