ABOUT
2022 Event
The 2022 edition of the YOUNG AUDIENCE SUMMIT took place in Berlin on June 19th, and was organised around the theme of representation and how European film reflects and represents young people, shapes identity and a sense of European culture.
The hybrid event was hosted and broadcast live from the Film University Babelsberg KONRAD WOLF, where 11 members of the Youth Council welcomed other youngsters from all over Europe, who joined them online.
The goal was to look at and celebrate examples of good practice as well as where the industry falls short.
