For instance, the first episode, “We Are in Vukovar”, portrays a group of high school students from Vukovar on a tour around their city in order to draw a map of everything the Vukovar of today can offer. Following their city mapping, we get to see Vukovar through the eyes of its young citizens. Questions like: Do people have to eat meat, what do Vegans eat, how to make seitan, are answered by Jelena, Mariana, Alen and Gordana in the episode “My Vegan Friend”. They are members of the association “Animal Friends”, which has recently launched the “Vegan Friend” project. The episode “Basketball for Everybody” presents the “Flumen Sancti Viti” basketball club from Rijeka, organising waste collection activities. By collecting tons of paper, plastic packaging and electronic waste, they acquire more than 50 per cent of income required for their club’s functioning.
Aside from these, a series of other youth initiatives will be presented, such as a residential-community experiment by a group of enthusiasts of a so-called urban common household, a sustainable property in Lika built by a Croatian scientist who made a career in America, the establishment of an association helping deprived and Roma children founded by a young, educated, self-confident girl, also of Roma origin.
We will also see a group of hip-hoppers from Slavonski Brod, discover all the ways of promoting peace by the Centre for Peace Studies and find out how to combat with the automobile industry from a young man from Samobor who designed a superfast electric car with a group of friends.
