GazteFilm-Fest – Festival de Cine Infantil y Juvenil
This festival’s proposal is starting an innovative collective educational experience where children are active agents of the project through their participation in all phases of the festival.
The program of this festival will be characterized by bringing contemporary youth audiovisual work from around the world that is not exhibited ommercially. It is a unique opportunity to see filmographies from around the world aimed at these audiences. The selection criteria will be cinematographic quality, technical and stylistic eclecticism (animation, documentary and fiction) and thematic diversity, with special emphasis on issues of solidarity and empathy between peoples, the different problems of human rights, violence and migration that are taking place. in the world and therefore, in our increasingly close environment.
The production of this festival is articulated through workshops for children and young people that will be developed in the different phases of the project: the pre-selection of the films, the selection and curation of the programs, communication and graphic design, until the final presentation of the programs to the festival audience.
This is the first film festival in the world with these characteristics where more than 130 young people will be responsible for building it up.
