In danger one of the most prestigious film festivals for children and young people in Europe, taking place NOW in Pyrgos (Greece) running for its 15th edition, due to the lack of the Regional Administration of Western Greece to secure its funding despite their systematic reassuring in the last past months. Every year more than 9000 young people and children from Greece and abroad watch highly acclaimed films from all over the world at the Olympia International Film Festival and make their own films at the workshops of the Camera Zizanio, the European Meeting of Young Peoples’ Audiovisual Creation, an important sidebar at the festival, running its 12th edition this year.

SHAME on them for cutting funding! This is the only thing we have that actually gives kids a chance to be creative.

This festival is so important for our kids. They learn so much about cinema and expressing themselves. Keep it alive please!
