Cinewax

The Cinewax catalogue will feature some fifty films produced by Africa and its diaspora, classified by educational themes for use by schools and educational institutions in the Île-de-France region. The aim is to raise awareness among young people and open them up to the world. Cinematography is also a medium of expression. That is why young people are invited to produce their own content and speak out on screens. The system is simple: a speaker will screen a film in the classroom, followed by a discussion and an introduction to film professions. Using a mobile phone camera or simply a pen, the young audience will have a space to speak freely, reach out to others, film and write their stories, while being guided and introduced to film trades by field professionals
