For the doubt

“For Doubt” is an interview film project with and about so-called Third Culture Kids.

The term "third culture kids" originates from sociology and refers to children who grow up and are socialized in cultures that do not correspond to their parents' culture of origin. From infancy, they act as a bridge between the culture of their parents and the culture of the country in which they live, ultimately developing their own amalgamated cultures: a third culture without space and, above all, without a people, lacking a national and political counterpart to represent it.

The videos in the installation revolve around the themes of origin, belonging, but also marginalization and exclusion, and not least the question of a possible political form of representation for this subjectivity of being in-between. How can cultural identity be conceived between or beyond clear attributions? How can a form for doubt be found?
