During a theatre production in South Africa, Geert Mul had handed out ten digital video cameras to street-kids of Hillbrow, Johannesburg. He asked them to portray their friends and their surroundings. Out of the 14 hours of dramatic video material that returned, Mul selected a few seconds to create the video portraits ‘Look At Us’ and DREAMBOY

‘Look at us’ is an invitation to look straight into the eyes of street kids at downtown Johannesburg.
But it also challenges us to ‘look at ourselves’ trough the eyes of those same kids, who appear to be staring at us in return.
