CINEMA AS A TOOL FOR UNDERSTANDING THE WORLD

For the past fifteen years, the Luxembourg City Film Festival has pursued its multifaceted ambition to offer diverse audiences major cinematic works, develop a panorama of contemporary international and national creation, and craft a range of initiatives and educational activities. Each year, in just seven days, more than 6,000 children and adolescents participate in our school program.

Film education begins with meticulously curating works designed for young audiences, thus shaping tomorrow’s cinephiles. In this respect, the Festival is proud to welcome already the first generation of filmmakers who experienced their very first screening with us. By definition, the LuxFilmFest is aimed at young audiences, families, and schools, offering them a complete festival experience that includes premieres, exclusive films, film introductions, discussions, and meetings with directors.

The evolution of practices and the questions raised by the increasing screen time among younger age groups only underscore the essential nature of this initiative. The works chosen to develop a specific image education programme represent cinema from around the world and a diversity of film styles. They all deal with current themes that allow for an in-depth pedagogical approach.
