Top 5 Third Culture Kids Videos You Probably Haven’t Seen

tck filmmakers

After watching Frances Darwin’s (a member of tckid) documentary on growing up in China, I began to browse for more videos in Youtube and was surprised to find more documentaries and films made by other third culture kids.I compiled a list of very interesting films, documentaries and personal accounts on the Third Culture Kid experience. Some are on Missionary Kids, many of them are about Army brats, and all of them are very interesting.
If you can find more videos, please share them in the comments!

    One thing that wrangled in the first video: "The term Third Culture Kid may be a "made-up name". It's no really made up, its transcended into the world of academia now... so it exists worldwide.
  • Isa
    PS. Merci encore Brice.
  • Brice
    I thought so too. "Third culture kid" is NOT a made-up name, that journalist's remark is silly. I'm glad they talked about us though - we need more media awareness.

    It's RARE to see any mention of TCKs in the media... if anyone has heard something, please let us know.

    Here's another one I found:

    "This video is designed to promote the soup house, mukappa, asian awareness association, and international and third culture kids in general."

    hey Brice, thanks for sharing these links
    I only took the time to watch them now, and they're really great, very touching
    I highly recommend them to everyone!
  • mairabay
    I found this other one that's pretty cool too
    It's more "arty" than informative, but I found it interesting:
