"Auf'm Sofa" is the video-campaign bringing together daughters and their migrant mamas to unwind and connect, discussing everything from lighthearted details to profound life questions. This three-part video series captures a caring yet complex exchange between two individuals from different migration generations.
Produced by much cooler than yours, this series is now in its second season. Our diverse cast and crew spent a moving time filming, filled with laughter, tears, dance moves, and hugs.

Attention: This is no ordinary newsletter. Ours is clearly #muchcoolerthanyours.
