Notes/description: The Stockholm Film Festival Junior was initiated in 2000 by the Stockholm International Film Festival. Junior presents quality film from the whole world to children and youth. The films shown at the festival seldom reach the mainstream film repertoire. Junior wants the youth to be able to develop and influence today’s cultural climat.
Behind-the-Scenes workshops, venues and seminars allow children/young people to learn about filmmaking in an interactive hamds-on environment.
