A selection of social media videos I have produced for ENTR, DW Science and personal projects.

What’s it like to live in the world’s northernmost town? We met Axel in Longyearbyen, Svalbard – a place where polar bears roam free and the sun never sets in summer. In one of the most extreme environments on Earth, Axel showed us something unexpected: a surprisingly social community, and a life full of thrill.

Homelessness is a real problem in the EU - and it's getting bigger. Finland has taken on a pioneering role with its ‘Housing First’ strategy. I host this ENTR explainer and find out more. | Author: Carolin Franz

Gender identity is a hot topic of debate all over Europe. Are there more than two genders? Should countries allow people to change their legal gender on documents? In this explainer video, I look at the legal rights of non-binary people across Europe.

Bulgaria is one of the European countries with worst attitudes towards LGBTQ people. Angelica Summer is a Bulgarian queer artist who sings against the homophobic rhetoric of local politicians from her home in Cologne, Germany.

Bulgaria’s parliament has recently passed a controversial bill banning LGBTQ+ propaganda in schools. In this video, I wanted to find out – what do Bulgarians think about this new bill? How does it affect teachers and students? And could it strain relations between Bulgaria and the European Union?

Lithuania topped the World Happiness Report in 2024 in happiness of people below the age of 30. At the same time, Lithuania has one of the highest numbers of low wage workers in the EU, and more than 300 000 people emigrated from the country in the last decade. So is Lithuania the best place for young people?

People's perceptions on what autism might look like can be outdated, wrong or plain harmful. In this podcast episode, I explain how the portrayal of autistic people has been changing in films and TV shows.

Healing through story - that’s the driving force behind Renae Maihi’s filmmaking. As an indigenous Māori woman from New Zealand, Renae believes in the living spirits of all her characters on screen.

Freaks No More! is our video podcast about visible and invisible disabilities, neurodiversity, and inclusion. By the end of each episode, host Vicky Hristova and their guests walk away with something new: a new way to think about the word "disability", a fresh perspective on empathy, or a simple reminder to be just a little bit more kind.
