You Can Become Anything
2K, Color, 1/1, Dutch, English & French spoken, BE, 2019, 18’
During an evening we follow a couple of young people who recently graduated and who are trying to adapt to new surroundings abroad. They struggle while making plans because of their extremely virtual communication. You Can Become Anything is a portrait of young people who are in the middle of a transition period, heading to a future that’s still unlived.
