Created in partnership between A Gota Preta Filmes and the Centro Cultural Phábrika from experiences with the Municipal Schools Sculptor Leão Velloso (06.25.019), Journalist and Writer Daniel Piza (06.25.41), Érico Veríssimo (06.25.06) and Charles Anderson Weaver (06.25.05), the International Short Film Festival for Children and Youth has the mission to contribute to Education by providing a playful environment conducive to learning through the exhibition of educational films from around the world, betting on the aesthetics of cinema to develop critical sense, sharpen curiosity and stimulate interest in learning in an area with fragile school performance!
Our goal is to invest in this exchange by screening the selected films for 22 municipal units, impacting the lives of thousands of students by expanding the offer of Cultural Capital to the population served by the schools concentrated in micro-areas 6.5 and 6.7 of the 6th Regional Education Coordination of Rio de Janeiro, lacking equipments that provides this access.
