This event took place over the weekend of 3-5 November 2023 and was a great opportunity for hundreds of young film lovers from different countries to explore European cinema.
It started with a TV & Film lab, continued with a summit, the launch of the European Film Club and a live-streamed screening & discussion, and ended with a party 🎉.
All events were co-created and hosted by members of the European Film Club.
We talked about “The Future of Humanity” and covered important issues such as climate change, human rights, the impact of the pandemic on mental health, and visions of utopia versus dystopia.
The summit was attended by 30 young people in Erfurt, Germany, with another 100 joining online. It was an inspiring gathering focused on how we can create a better future together.
