The 2022 edition will take place in Berlin on June 19th, and is being organised around the theme of representation and how European film reflects and represents young people, shapes identity and a sense of European culture.
The Youth Council will be joining in person and Summit participant online. They will watch short films and take part in Q&A's with filmmakers. The goal is to look at and celebrate examples of good practice as well as where the industry falls short.
WHY REPRESENTATION?
"With minorities being in different films, it's a way of representing yourself and it's a way of showing the person that there is light at the end of the tunnel." Emmerson, UK, Youth Council member
"When I was a kid, I didn't see any kind of LGBTQA+ presentation on the TV shows that I watch. So, it was kind of hard for me to understand that there were people like me, for example, because I'm proud of the community." Thomas, Spain, Youth Council member
