’50 meters’: Who has the right to tell the stories?

It is a discussion we never truly finish—the question of how filmmakers, who convey grand narratives, are influenced by their own personal relationship to the story. Who has the right to tell which stories? And does lived experience make a particular story a universal one?

After the screening of 50 Meters, we invite you to a conversation with the film’s director, Yomna Khattab og filmmaker Marina Vorobyeva. Together, we will explore who has the right to tell which stories and how representation plays a role in film and documentary work. The conversation will be moderated by Jennifer Tonndorff, who has extensive experience in diversity, representation, and storytelling in documentary film.
