<p>This degree project documents the meeting of four high-school students with working life before and during the practical training period, which is a mandatory part of the Swedish media curriculum. We looked into practical training, which we qualify as the crossroads between school and working life, from a student’s perspective. We chose to approach the problem theoretically via hermeneutics and we used the case study method for our field research. The foundation of our pre-understanding of the media curriculum’s practical training period lays on previously published research, the study of specialist literature, own experience gained during practical training and teaching experience at high-schools as well as a pre-study we carried out. We chose to present our degree project in a visual form by making a documentary. It is our conviction that a film provides dimensions beyond those of a text. Our film is a subjective version of what we saw and experienced. It is, nevertheless, a tale told from a student’s view of reality. The film is complemented by a dissertation describing the background of our research, the method we used and the research findings.</p>
