Call Me Intern
Unemployed and frustrated, filmmakers David and Nathalie set out to secure internships and examine the employment system from the inside. After David accepts an unpaid internship at the United Nations, he and Nathalie move into a small blue tent on the Geneva lakefront, and begin documenting his experience. Meanwhile, Kyle interns for Warner Music while living in a homeless shelter in New York City, and Marisa works for Obama’s re-election campaign while fending off unwanted sexual harassment from her supervisors. The filmmakers’ action, documenting their experiences, sparks a global press storm and challenges their roles as filmmakers.
Nathalie Berger applies her interest in art and politics to incite debate on social issues. She made a documentary about the impact of “voluntourism” on local communities in Kenya, and initiated a human rights art collective in Geneva. She was a content creator for the Solar Impulse project, and produced videos for the world's first solar plane.
