The poetic documentary designed and produced by 58 European high school students invested in the project.
The workshops
Mobility two : “Take two Marseille”
Second stage of our project. Mobility in Marseille, in partnership with the FID : the visit of mythical places, screenings, filming days and even editing!
Mobility one : “Take one Thessaloniki”
Three groups composed of students of three nationalities, supervised by professional directors, captured images and sounds of the city of Thessaloniki.
Workshop “Take one: Thessaloniki”
On the occasion of the 62nd Thessaloniki Film Festival TIFF 2021, the students participated in a very rich program of activities to learn to watch, listen and criticize the cinema.
Workshop “Minute please!”
Passed or not, the “Lumière minute” is the exam for apprentice filmmakers. 120 years after the beginnings of cinema, it was normal that the exercise was part of We are filmakers’ approach.
Film critical workshop Marseilleveyre high school
Film critical for radio : a training workshop provided by Vincent Thabourey, from Cinemas du Sud.
“Walls” workshop
Together, from home, we imagine the walls of our ideal city.
Dreams
We hope that our actions will enable our high school students to:
- form a jury of enlightened critics, capable of awarding a european youth prize to the FID Marseille 2022;
- collectively make a poetic and documentary film about an ideal european city, at the crossroads of Madrid, Thessaloniki and Marseille.
But above all, we hope that physical mobility will take place…
Critical look
High school students refine their gaze through local actions, exchanges during virtual mobility but above all thanks to the physical mobility that brings students together in partner cultural places: at the Cineeteca in Madrid, at the Thessaloniki International Festival, at the Marseille Film Festival and, with the support of the Southern Region, at the Cannes Film Festival. These are moments of collective work, in teams composed of high school students from the 3 countries who see the same films at the same time and in exceptional conditions.
Realization
As long as real mobility is impossible, students film their city, following identical instructions in the 3 countries, supervised by cultural trainers. Then, when it is possible to meet in Thessaloniki, Madrid and Marseille, the international teams of high school students will make a film together about their ideal European city.
