Born Rival Magazine - Volume 01

Born Rival is a bi-annual print publication from two brothers with backgrounds in film, exploring the confluence of the subconscious mind and the intentional eye through film culture, photography, and the independent spirit. Volume 01 collects stories, reflections, and conversations from filmmakers and photographers across the globe, featuring work from Josua Stäbler, Salomon Ligthelm, Emily Howe, Dana Shaw, Erlendur Sveinsson, and over a dozen others.

At 256 pages designed as an object that documents a culture rather than simply reporting on it. The editorial approach treats the camera as an invitation to travel, explore, and see the world more fully. For readers interested in film culture, documentary photography, and independent publishing with a strong point of view.
