Created for Schule Schloss Salem, this film follows five students completing the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award. Across several days in the wilderness, the project offers an authentic look into their experience — from stepping out of their comfort zone to reconnecting with nature, independence, and teamwork.
The film captures both the physical journey and the personal perspective of the students, while staying rooted in the context of Schule Schloss Salem.
It highlights the school as a values-driven learning environment that places equal importance on academic education and real-world experience.
