Format and Programme
Sessions take place as live discussions and debates following film screenings — Ukrainian and international films, classics and contemporary works, arthouse and blockbusters.
Participants analyze genres, stylistic features, cultural contexts, and learn to understand what the director wanted to convey "between the lines," discovering in cinema more than just the plot.
Atmosphere
There are no grades for "correct" answers — here every opinion is valued, openness to dialogue and the ability to think critically and creatively. Participants try themselves as film critics, learn about film history and different national cinematographies, debate topics that truly matter to them.
