Best of Schulprogramm
Throughout the year, school classes were able to enjoy versatile short film programs. On the one hand, there was a special focus on language mediation (English, Spanish, French or German), but on the other hand also on content-related and moral focal points (environment & sustainability, flight & migration, art & philosophy). This program presents a cross-section of all school programs consisting of the films that were best received by our young audience last year. It is worthwhile, because also the winner STILLLEBEN of the Schüler*innen-Liebling 2021 can be seen in this program.
