About the project
Histórias sem Fronteiras uses storytelling and animated cinema to encourage the integration of young migrants and their families into schools and wider society. Taking inspiration from Hirundo’s international project, “Open Camp: a new Narrative from Children in Refugee Camps”, pupils of the Pedrouços School Group learn to create animated short films using sand, objects and shadows, based on the stories and experiences of migrant pupils.
