What happens when a traditionally welcoming and generous country, with an extremely export-driven economy, imposes steep tuition fees for some of the students?

Eclectic students and faculty from all over the planet meet at one of the the world's top industrial design school in Scandinavia's faraway north just below the Arctic Circle. This documentary explores everyday life, unique study methods and dynamic design processes at Umea Institute of Design during the school's 25th anniversary when traditionally welcoming and generous Sweden, with its export-driven economy, imposes steep tuition fees for non-Europeans, the very students that have been instrumental in making the school what it is today.

Finally a industrial design documentary

It was great to see a documentary about a topic like industrial design which must be tough. What I particularly like about this movie is that we get a chance to see the process that is normally so complicated to show. The students are eager to learn and offer a lot of insight themselves. The faculty at the school are very understanding and inspiring, you almost feel they are all on the same level which make the film so rewarding to watch. How I wish studying was this exciting when I went to (design) school myself. For anyone who care about the subject matter I really recommend this great film as a serious introduction to a fascinating subject.
