The Association EPEKA, Soc. Ent., organises a film screening in Maribor as part of the EU Youth Cinema: Green Deal project.
EU Youth Cinema: Green Deal is an innovative project dedicated to a sustainable Europe, presenting the European Union’s green objectives in a film context. The project contributes to the appreciation and understanding of the EU Green Deal (https://ec.europa.eu/info/strategy/priorities-2019-2024/european-green-deal_sl) among young viewers and provides a platform for a multicultural approach to the Green Agenda. The project engages young audiences in particular, addressing environmental challenges and promoting green activities and lifestyles.
The project will offer young people and teachers a programme of film and educational activities over a period of 24 months. Film screenings and streaming content will be accompanied by didactic material and thematically linked discussions, workshops and lectures.
The programme is based on a carefully selected collection of 25 European films, which will be presented both in cinemas and via an online streaming platform between May 2022 and May 2024.
The project is implemented in Slovenia, Austria, Croatia, North Macedonia and Romania. All films will be subtitled in local languages and are suitable for young people aged 10 and over.
Information about films:
1. LAST GENERATION| POLAND (2021) | DIRECTOR: MIKOŁAJ BOROWY | DOCUMENTARY | 59 MINUTES | RECOMMENDED AGE: OLDER THAN 10 YEARS, with Slovenian subtitles|
Janka wakes up every day thinking about the end of the world. Scientists have found that in 2030, we will trigger a chain reaction that will bring about the end of our civilisation. This burden is forcing Janka to take radical action. She is beginning to uanderstand that she will have to make a choice. Involvement in the climate justice movement dominates her daily life; work and study are pushed to the background. Activism turns out to be a form of action that gives her strength and hope. In the midst of an open coal mine that resembles the surface of the moon, she realises how far she will go to stop it.
2. THE CLIMATE PLANET FILM| DENMARK (2021) | AUTHOR: JESPER THEILGAARD | DOCUMENTARY | 36 MINUTES | RECOMMENDED AGE: OLDER THAN 10 YEARS, with Slovenian Subtitles|
CLIMATE PLANET FILM is a scientific masterpiece in an easily accessible and engaging format, including images, visuals and animations. The documentary goes back to the very beginnings of our planet and shows how our climate depends on a complex balance – a balance that we humans are now effectively upsetting. At the same time, the film shows the interconnectedness between the temperature rise caused by human activities and the resulting effects on climate, nature and human well-being, and is therefore recommended for didactic purposes.
Registration is required to visit the cinemas and access the online platform.
