Space, the last hope. This is the story of a group of children and young adults who after the end of Earth, reached for the skies and beyond to establish a new civilisation on a far away planet. A loose weave of their meetings, explorations and discoveries, and a record of their attempts to not forget this proverbial island in the cosmic dark, that once they called home.

ZONE (2024) and The Night Is Dark and Colder than the Day (2025), and their unique ideas of fantasy with realist(ic) groundings, made Christina Friedrich a new IFFR audience favourite. Now Dump is again anchored in a workshop Friedrich conducted with her young protagonists during which they delineated the theme(s) of the film-to-be, developed situations, explored their characters, and so on, making the project as much a shared learning experiences as a possibility to channel certain thoughts and feelings about their very real futures that otherwise might have been difficult to address. Dump, thus, is an endeavour in education and creativity as well as a spirited science fiction adventure!
