Anders.se - TV-series for deaf and sign language users

Two youth deafs were inspired by the annual Filmgala in Örebro and after winning in the categories best director, best film, best manusscript and best actor with their productions they decides to make something new.

The idea of anders.se was born and these two, Filip Wlostowski and Mindy Drapsa made the idea to reality. Anders.se is a sitcom about life, audiogram and a small web company. Seems to be really interesting! The trailer with english subtitle is available at www.dramaski.se. You have to enter english site to watch the trailer with subtitle.

For a long time many youth deafs have complained that there is no TV for youth deaf in Sweden. We just have approximately 1 hour Sign Language broadcast per week, it's not enough! Ok, there are 10 mins signing news every day, but it still isn't enough. By the 1 hour broadcast in Sign Language, there are just poor TV programs.

I think and hope that will be a pressure on SVT (Sveriges Television - the Swedish public service television company). A really sucking broadcaster, but I hope they will understand and give us deaf more broadcast in our own language. They dont subtitle all broadcasts, its discrimination against people who can't take part of public broadcasts!

By the way, don't forget to check out the trailer at www.dramaski.se!
