What does it mean to be human now? Four views by CYP x CALLY

  • Film

This short film explores the question of being human during Covid-19 through poetry and four monologues.

The project was led by 15 young people from Copenhagen Youth Project, and features perspectives drawn from local communities in Caledonian and Barnsbury wards (‘Cally’), accompanied by footage from Black Lives Matter protests. 

The monologues are performed by Moses Gomes-Santos and the poem by Samuel King with background music produced by Armani ‘Amzdatkid’ Malone, an attendee at Copenhagen Youth Project. The production was led by Blanguage.

This project is part of Wellcome Collection’s Youth Programme in partnership with Copenhagen Youth Project.
