INTERSECTION empowers progressive voices to navigate hard conversations about systemic opression. The series and game seek to create empathy and allyship with a sense of humor — to build bridges between divided groups and challenge injustice.

Intersection
Karoline Rößler / Germany / 2025
Intersection is a documentary series (3x30min) and interactive mobile game that reveals how discrimination shapes our world—especially for those who don’t experience it. In the game, players navigate a city as a randomly assigned shape, facing bias based on color, form, or pattern. It’s unfair—just like real life. The docu-series follows six people who fight for equality and face sexism, racism, queer-/transphobia or ableism. Together, they ask: How do we stay united as rights erode and divisions grow?
