One of the most challenging goals being a UNESCO Creative City of Film is to bring audiovisual knowledge to all social levels, and for these purpose approaching filmmaking to schools is one of the most relevant chances and windows to take advantage of. Nowadays, children and youth are big consumers of media products and information, and to boost critical comprehension of visual content is one of a serious challenge.

Terrassa offers a whole workflow,in hands of specialised staff , to train and encourage both teachers and students in the use of film creative tools and narrative. In this purpose a classroom film-made festival has been created: ‘TRS Fem Cinema!’ as a way to share results among hundred of local students and learn from all of them together.

On May, the ancient film theatre “Cinema Catalunya”, today part of our heritage, became a very special stage to show those movies made by the students and as a great place for the awards ceremony.
