TOO FAR AWAY offers the opportunity to bring topics such as friendship, displacement and solidarity - topics that play a particularly important role today - into the classroom without too much finger wagging. The acting skills of the two young main characters are outstanding, and the dialogues slow enough to allow even weaker students to understand parts without subtitles. Methodological-didactic notes / learning objectives can be found before each worksheet, suggested solutions at the end of the collection.
The didactic material was created in collaboration with the Swedish Film Institute. On their website, you can find more film documents and pedagogical tips.
