A deeper companion to the film — with reflections, surprising lessons, and practical ways to rethink modern life.
What’s included in the Insight Bundle
1. The Reflection Guide
A thoughtful companion to help you process the film’s biggest themes: belonging, cultural change, modernity, identity, and what a more meaningful life might require from us today. Drawing on years of friendship, immersion, and reflection, Audun shares deeper context, personal observations, and key moments from the journey behind the film.
2. The Deeper Insights Guide
A collection of the most surprising teachings and realizations that emerged through the making of Newtopia — about community, time, presence, resilience, and what many modern societies have quietly lost. It explores what traditional ways of life can still teach us, and how some of those lessons may help us regain balance in a digital world.
3. The Resource Guide
A curated collection of books, ideas, thinkers, and resources for viewers who want to go further into the themes of the film: cultural change, modernity, indigenous wisdom, human wellbeing, and how to live with greater depth and clarity today.

What Newtopia is really about
At its heart, Newtopia is about friendship, cultural change, and what happens when modernity enters a world shaped by entirely different values. Through years of trust and immersion, the film follows not just a place, but a way of life under pressure — and the human cost, beauty, humor, and contradictions that come with that transformation.
A film that gives back
Newtopia is not only a documentary, but part of a long relationship. Through film sales and support, the project has helped fund meaningful initiatives for the people and culture at its center — including a new house, solar power, clean water, and a student café. The film does not end when the credits roll; it continues in the lives it remains connected to.
