LOWLAND KIDS by Sandra Winther | Clip | ZFF 2025 | Border Lines

Since the death of their parents, Howard and Juliette have grown very close to each other. Together with their Uncle Chris, they live on Isle de Jean Charles, a narrow strip of land in the Deep South of the USA, surrounded by rising waters. In 2021, Hurricane Ida destroyed almost all the houses on the peninsula, forcing the residents to flee. Since then, the authorities have been working to relocate inland the community as their world continues to sink into the sea. LOWLAND KIDS captures a unique landscape with stunning images and portrays the lives of climate refugees in the southern United States.
