【Film Screening: Short films made by Chinese children】
Have you ever seen films made by children?
The screening will select 10 short films made by children in mainland China. These films were produced by the film-making workshops of Beijing Film Festival for Youth Welfare and film clubs in primary and secondary schools in different provinces. The children themselves serve as directors, writers, photographers and complete post-production.
These films show how children get the chance to self-empowerment, take self-initiated actions, and practice responsibility through artistic creation. The collaborative process of film-making also allows them to speak about themselves, sharing what excites them, what worries them and what surrounds them.

Time: 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm
Venue: OEM 1018
