Abstract

Stefano started filming Lauren's life in 2014. At that time, Lauren was a teenager living in precarious housing conditions on the outskirts of Madrid, and Stefano was a PhD candidate working on youth migration. Their experimental collaborations continued for a couple of years. Then Stefano's doctoral scholarship ended, and the possibility to produce a collaborative documentary movie went on stand-by. Over the years, however, they kept imagining working together on this project, each of them with different motivations and positionalities. Finally, the opportunity presented itself with the EU-funded project "Resilience and Resignation among Transnational Roma and non-Roma Youths" (RETRY, 2019-2022). Unfortunately, the pandemic broke out shortly before they could meet in Romania, where Lauren had eventually returned with his family. So, towards the end of 2020, Stefano sent him a smartphone and invited him to record his life. This video is Lauren's diary of that period.
