What Planète Cinéma has to offer

Planète Cinéma, the FIFF’s school programme, presents a selection of films that are appropriate for a young audience and embrace all levels of education, from primary school kids to high school students. The programme offers an unique opportunity to discover the international cinematographic diversity. Thanks to encounters with directors and film makers from all over the world, the youngsters are able to gain insights into different approaches of film making and learn how to analyse movies. The youth programme’s films are chosen by an artistic committee including the Festival director who is collaborating with a team specialised in the selection of films for a young audience. Teachers are free to choose the movie they wish their students to see amongst the films presented by Planète Cinéma.

In 2011, more than 9000 students attended the 53 screenings organised for a young audience.

Planète Cinéma is supported by the Canton of Fribourg and a member of cineducation.ch.

Planète Cinéma offers:
  • Film introductions before the screening
  • A dubbed version of the film or simultaneous translation if the students are too yount to read subtitles
  • Encounters with the directors, producers or actors after the screenings
  • Tailor-made teaching material on the website e-media.ch
  • A blog where students can discuss movies an take on critical standpoints
  • Workshops which can be held in classrooms and that are organised in collaboration with Réseau/Netzwerk Cinéma CH
