Imagine Kolle 37 is a short film about two children who imagine their way through a real adventure playground—Abenteurlicher Bauspielplatz Kolle 37—in Berlin, Germany. A “hybrid” film that mixes narrative, documentary, and animation, Imagine Kolle 37 evokes the question—can we, as Americans today, imagine Kolle 37, a real children’s playground in Berlin where children build and climb three-story wooden structures; make fires; and use hammers, saws, and axes?
Through the exploration of the children in the space and an interview with a playworker, the film evokes thoughts about childhood, risk, and play—and it encourages us to contemplate how such beliefs shift across cultures and eras.
Imagine Kolle 37 has screened at museums including the Institute of Contemporary Art; festivals including IFFBoston, Free Range Film Festival, Woods Hole Film Festival; and at universities, schools, and venues across the world.
