PLAYLIST EUROPE

SYNOPSIS

For an entire generation of young Europeans, the European Union has long been a given. They have grown up with open borders, freedom of movement, and a shared European vision. But what does the EU actually mean for their personal lives?

The documentary PLAYLIST EUROPE tells four stories from the lives of young people whose daily lives are shaped in very different ways by the European Union: Faced with a difficult job market, Cristina leaves her home in Spain to seek her fortune in England. In Sofia, Radoslav fights against discrimination against gay people and for a Bulgaria where European values become a social reality.

In Upper Bavaria, Jakob is taking his first steps as a selfemployed organic farmer and is experiencing firsthand how European agricultural policy shapes his daily life. And the DJ duo andhim travels virtually without borders from club to club across Europe—always on the hunt for the hottest beats and the next big party.

Four ways of life, four perspectives on the European Union— and on a generation for whom the EU is not an abstract political institution, but a part of their daily lives.
