At the Abenteurlicher Bauspielplatz Kolle 37, an adventure playground located in Berlin, Germany, children build and climb three-story wooden structures, make fire, and use hammers, saws and axes. Founded in 1990, Kolle 37 invites young people ages six through sixteen, without their parents, to embrace risky play in the park under the loose supervision of playworkers.
The short film IMAGINE KOLLE 37 follows two girls who imagine their way to this real Berlin adventure playground. An unconventional hybrid narrative/documentary, the film follows the girls as they interact with fire, hammers, hatchets and climb through the wooden houses.
