Unique audio-visual content aimed at communicating the water challenges we face along the shores of the Mediterranean.
What does the Mediterranean mean for you?
Mediterranean Day Video
The video was launched to celebrate the first-ever Day of the Mediterranean (28 November 2021). AMWAJ asked the Nest City Lab community what does the Mediterranean means for them. The Day of the Mediterranean aims to act as a timely reminder that our similarities overcome our differences, the cultural dimension being an important component of who we are and where we come from.
The Invisible Water Short Film
Project Animation Video
This short film was launched on World Water Day (22 March 2021) and aims to make us reflect upon how we use and consume water, without being aware of it: this is about so-called ‘virtual water’ – the ‘invisible water’ that goes into making products around the world, from food to household goods, clothing or buildings. This short film sensitises us to the water we most often do not see.
This short film was selected for the fourth Marmostra – Marés Curtas Short Film Festival 2021, Di-segna il tuo mare 2021 and International Ecological Film Festival TO SAVE AND PRESERVE 2021.
Upcoming screenings:
The Fresh Water Short Film has been awarded the Botín Foundation Water Observatory prize on Sustainable Water Management for its audiovisual artistic project on water consumption. The short film co-produced by AMWAJ and the Egyptian non-studio won Category B for audiovisual artistic projects focusing on freshwater, aquatic ecosystem and water conservation. The award aims to recognise the innovative audiovisual projects developed by young professionals aimed at awakening the talent and awareness of children and young people in relation to sustainable water management.
Communicating the shift towards water resilience
Project Concept Video
This video was launched on World Environment Day (5 June 2021) following the kick off of the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration and invites people to reflect on our relationship with nature. Capturing memories, life events, sacred moments and journeys created with and by water, the video explores this spiritual relationship, exemplifying AMWAJ’s goal of protecting, restoring and enhancing water ecosystems, and preserving those memories and stories.
