It’s not a stretch to say that the future of electronic dance music is annually channeled through the iconic Tomorrowland festival, which once again served as a seedbed of the culture in 2023<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The unbridled euphoria of this year’s festival has now been crystallized for fans by virtue of a new documentary, We Are Tomorrow<\/em>. Out now via Amazon Music, the short film “provides an in-depth look into the magic, music and global community that defines Tomorrowland,” per a press release shared with EDM.com<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Tomorrowland’s organizers hosted 400,000 fans from over 200 different countries in 2023. We Are Tomorrow<\/em> zeroes in on just a handful of those people, including Brazilian dance music superstar Alok<\/a> and two Ukrainian refugees attending the festival.<\/p>\n

One of those refugees, Veronika, was forced to flee her home of Kharkiv after the city was bombed by Russian military forces, leading to the deaths of hundreds of civilians<\/a>. She’s now living with a host family in Belgium as the Russo-Ukrainian war rages on<\/a>, rebuilding her life alongside a fellow escapee and EDM admirer, Mykola, according to Tomorrowland.<\/p>\n

“Music for me, it’s energy. It’s freedom,” Veronika said. “It\u2019s something that gives you strength to move on. Tomorrowland is like a fairytale. It\u2019s like another world where I can forget about all problems and recharge my energy and strength to move on.”<\/p>\n

We Are Tomorrow <\/em>was directed by Wim Bonte. You can watch the full documentary below.<\/p>\n
