Rupture

Description

A group of young adults from Peterbos, an often stigmatised social housing district in Brussels, exchange their everyday lives for the wild, unpredictable nature of the Spanish Pyrenees. During a week-long trip, the unexperienced hikers venture into the mountains to brave snow and storms. At night, they are able to confront their deepest fears and concerns for the first time. The extreme conditions force them to look inwards and to reflect upon their lives back home. Rupture gives an insight into the often harsh reality that young adults with an immigrant background face in their journey towards adulthood.
