Cinema: Schule des Sehens 2024
In a 90-minute workshop in the extracurricular learning environment cinema, your students get to see an age-appropriate short documentary film on the big screen.
Based on teamwork assignments, the students answer various questions relating to topic as well as style of the respective film. Thereby, children and young people learn how to read film in a differentiated way and are playfully motivated to use media critically and confidently.
The documentaries we choose narrate at eye level and with artistic standards from the perspective of young people. The workshops are conducted by film experts trained in media education and in most cases accompanied by the respective filmmaker.
During the 39th DOK.fest München in May 2024 our cinema-workshops will take place at Hochschule für Fernsehen und Film (HFF), Pasinger Fabrik and Gasteig HP8.
The educational programme of Schule des Sehens is only available in German language.

“In our multimedia world, it is not always easy to distinguish between fiction and reality. This makes it all the more important to learn media literacy, as it enables us to categorise our experiences and participate in culture.” Anton Biebl, cultural adviser of the city of Munich and patron of DOK.education.
Schule des Sehens is an event of the International Documentary Film Festival Munich e.V. Sincere thanks are given to our partners und sponsors, who provide our students with cultural education, media competence training and participation in arts and culture this year.
