SAME SAME BUT DIFFERENT is a documentary from Toïne Haverkamp that explores what backpacking is, during a nine-month search through well and lesser-known backpack spots in Asia. The documentary gives a glimpse into the backpack scene. Shown from the perspective of a traveler who has never been outside his own continent. During the trip the viewer is taken by other backpackers who will show all aspects of what backpacking has to offer. You will see stories and images that we often see on Instagram, but more importantly, all the stories behind those enviable moments that we never hear. For backpackers it will evoke a sense of recognition, and for the stay-at-homers a nice glimpse into the backpack scene. The documentary is strongly music driven by the specially created soundtrack of the young producers Nikos and Nick (Rotterdam, the Netherlands) and To.ne (Utrecht, the Netherlands).—Toïne Haverkamp
