The Future of European Film,

co-created by young people

This new programme of the European Film Academy co-created by young people is a film platform and film club network across Europe for young people to come together to watch and discuss European films and share their own.

WELCOME TO

Bringing young Europeans together through film

  • Are you aged between 12 - 19? Do you like films?

 

  • Would you like to be part of a community of people your age to explore films together?

  • Would you like to watch and discuss a diverse range of European films selected by young people? 

WHO IS IT FOR?

Explore European cinema with your peers

The European Film Club gives you the opportunity to watch and discuss films online or in person, with other members of a film club.

 

We are building a community of young film lovers, to explore and discuss a diverse range of European films.

WHAT CAN YOU DO?

Join the European Film Club

This is a free programme in Europe, genuinely co-created by young people and supported by Creative Europe MEDIA. 

Register and join a community of film lovers like you. Choose a film club and participate in screenings and discussions as well as events organised through this network. Exchange opinions about the films you watch with other young people. Spread the love for cinema!

          “A place where you can watch movies without other people disturbing, you can talk about the movies with your peers…is going to be super cool, at least where I’m from, everybody would love that.”
