Summary of the Project
The objective of the Film Festival 2021 ‘Social and Sustainable’, is to reach the public through the most powerful and visual tool, which is cinema. Through film, TANAGRA wants to spread objectives such as raising public awareness of the problems we are currently facing due to climate change. The film sectors are suitable for all audiences; children, teenagers and adults, and include only films and short films with a positive message. Films are accompanied by workshops and various activities, which can then be linked to our own context in Menorca.
Objectives
- To spread awareness of sustainability through film, to both local and visiting audiences.
- To spread awareness of sustainability in actions related to cinema, talks, workshops, etc. Involving local audiences and young people of school age.
- To reduce the amount of waste generated during the festival.
