WHO IS BEHIND IT?
INITIATOR.
My name is Rebecca Panian. I am a filmmaker and unconditional basic income activist.
The idea for the format “Voll auf die 12” came from an improvisation exercise I recently carried out for my feature film project LOTTERY – a dystopian satire about 12 people from all over the world who have to work together to find a solution to overpopulation.
I was hoping for an exciting discussion with many opposing viewpoints. What I didn't expect, however, was that this group of strangers would actually find "humane" solutions to a topic that no one really wants to discuss in less than 90 minutes. That impressed me enormously and I asked myself:
What would happen if you asked 12 randomly selected people to find solutions to problems that most likely affect most people in Switzerland? What would be the outcome? Maybe chaos. But maybe also ideas and solutions that make sense for everybody!
