Triple Trouble. What kinds of films do children and teenagers want to see?

Triple Trouble. What kinds of films do children and teenagers want to see?

What films about themselves do young viewers not want to go to the cinema? Which heroes and movie characters are they particularly fed up with, and which are they rooting for? Do adult authors and authors still understand the needs of young audiences? Or maybe, as it sometimes happens, they only think so? We invite you to the debate on Friday, December 11, 2020, at 15.00.

The debate can be watched on the PFF’s social media. The meeting will be available HERE.
