‘Democracy is not a solo act.
It needs a cast, a chorus and a lively argument.
But algorithms divide us, while inequality drives us further apart.
Public service media must set the stage for togetherness:
helping us meet, listen and imagine what we might do together.
Because together, we can disagree without falling apart.’

Niels-Ole Rasmussen coordinates the Video Documentary category.
