SEMINCI Education is a specific space within the Valladolid International Film Festival, housing the festival’s educational proposals. Aiming to generate an audience with a critical and inquisitive outlook, capable of understanding the challenges of the present through film.
In order to achieve its goal of forming future spectators, SEMINCI offers a series of stimulating and diverse initiatives, among which the following stand out:
- In the cinemas
- In the Classroom
- Complementary activities
- Educational resources
The aim of the entire programme is focused on the study of cinema and its codes in different contexts, especially those related to the school community, inviting tutors and schools to stimulate a passion for cinema and build a more sensitive and coherent future.
If you are a member of the educational community and would like to receive information about our programme of activities, please do not hesitate to contact us at educacion@seminci.com
In the cinemas, a programme aimed at schools in which students of different ages (Elementary School pupils attending Miniminci and Middle School and above participating in SEMINCI Youth) enjoy the experience of going to the cinemas to watch a film.
We believe that cinema is a useful tool that confronts us with different realities and is capable of making us question, vindicate, open our minds, confront our feelings, ideas and fears as part of a unique collective experience.
In its fifth edition, Cinephile Window will bring together a fine selection of carefully selected titles, including feature films and short films, by contemporary international authors that appeal to the present reality of any student through different perspectives and narrative approaches. The programme can be enjoyed from 15 October to 30 November 2024 and, for yet another year, each film will be accompanied by didactic guides.
This free online programme is made possible thanks to the collaboration of the digital platform Filmin and by joining forces in coordination with other important festivals in our country, which along with SEMINCI are the driving force behind the ProFestivales21 alliance: the Malaga Festival, the Sitges Festival, the Seville Festival and the Huelva Festival.
The application period for participation will open on 16 September for the educational community.
Within the SEMINCI Education programme, it is worth mentioning the activities with new educational approaches from international projects, such as Moving Cinema Young Programmers, along with other traditional activities at the festival, such as the Miniminci poster competition.
The second edition Moving Cinema Young Programmers, a group of enthusiastic young people will have the opportunity to participate in the process of selecting and curating a film for the festival, culminating in a panel discussion led by the young programmers and attended by the selected filmmaker.
MINIMINCI poster competition, a contest aimed at elementary school students in which the image of the official poster for the MINIMINCI programme is chosen.
Educational resources from the 69th edition and from past editions will be available soon.
