Global Home
As soon as filmmaker Eva Stotz found out about the Couchsurfing network, she had to know more. What was this online community providing a free place to sleep anywhere in the world, a chance look in on the lives of complete strangers, and an opportunity to reach out beyond the internet after only a few emails? Eva packed her camera and set off on her travels.
Team
The producers Karsten Aurich and Annedore von Donop of sabotage films (Berlin Calling, Ion Tichy Raumpilot, Global Player) produced this project. The music was composed by internationally known composer and musician Jürgen Grözinger (European Music Project, Orient-occident, Inside the dream) in collaboration with Joa Glasstetter.
