A-FILMTEENS

4TH YEAR 2025

INFORMATION ABOUT THE YEAR 2025

Since I only signed up to watch the films with my class (16 students) and in the end most of the classes of our school (103 students and several teachers) watched the films, I consider it a great success. We just talked about it amongst the teachers in the corridor during snack time and it was already a chain reaction, some couldn't resist and watched in their classes with the students too :-). They were logging in with my details, hopefully not angry with us, which is why we didn't end up giving external access to the pupils either, so as to keep an eye on the ages and appropriate topics. We only played it in class. It was great,...

They worked very well together, the teacher got 5 teen judges, she willingly transcribed their evaluations of the films, and when the kids couldn't make it she sent us an evaluation of the festival before we even contacted her: We enjoyed your festival in several subjects as much as we could, and the recommended pre-selection you sent helped me in my citizenship. Of course, I must also admit that my enthusiasm for the idea of the festival was sometimes demotivated by the lukewarm response of some classes (children in the second grade are deformed by the easy entertaining consumption of tic-tac-toe and youtube videos and often did not even...

"Very pleasant speech of the moderator, who was able to break down the films with the children and briefly summarize what they were about. He actively answered all the pupils' questions. I thought it was great that the pupils were able to see films made by their peers and at the same time be inspired to make their own films.""For me, the films were very nice. The fact that they were mostly made by the children themselves gave us strong reaction. The reaction of our school children was great. Almost all the films were appreciated by the children with applause. The comments on the films were sensitive and professional. The children...

Elementary school in Lužany

Very practical, visually very nice, easy to approach, rich themes; the only problem at the beginning with access.

(A-Filmteensfest response: we had a problem with the payment gateway at the beginning, so we decided to allow all viewers free access to films in 2023)

Very nice event. The films in which children from higher grades participated were an inspiration and motivating. Kids now want to make movies themselves. We also used films in teaching, natural history, etc. We had some technical problems with the access password.
(A-Filmteensfest response: we know about it and we will adjust and simplify the registration and login method for the upcoming year)

Elementary school, Liberec Region, Czech Republic

Thank you for access to the film festival. I am looking forward not only to interesting children's creations (I saw examples of creations on the website - they are beautiful), but also to the fact that it will definitely affect our children in the orphanage in some way. Several children already have creative ambitions for filming - again a wonderful opportunity to use their free time in a creative, purposeful and meaningful way. Thank you so much for these children!!!

Film blocks on the environment and bullying sparked heated discussions among the pupils; The movie "Pirates" (about friends with a radio station) was useful for its English. The children had a lot of fun with it all, broadened their horizons. Great choice of topics, enrichment of pupils (also discovering knowledge - what they know). We recommend better tuning the promotion to schools.
(A-Filmteensfest response: We are always looking for new ways to let other schools and audiences know about us.)
