Save the Children Children's Rights Film Festival to be held at Ichon Hangang Park on the 31st

International child rights NGO Save the Children announced on the 6th that it will hold the 12th Save the Children Children's Rights Film Festival at Ichon Hangang Park in Yongsan District, Seoul, on the 31st.

The theme of this year's film festival is "Seeing the World Through a Child's Eyes," and it will be held outdoors for the first time. Ticket reservations begin on the official website on this day.

The work "Class 6, Grade 3 Graduation Video_V14," produced by Save the Children in collaboration with director Yun Dan-bi, will also be premiered at the film festival. This work contains the story of 16-year-old Sofia, a child with a migrant background, growing as she encounters the stories of her friends and family while making a graduation video for her friends.

The event will also screen animated short films and short films by emerging film directors selected through a contest. Broadcaster Park Kyung-lim, a Save the Children ambassador, will serve as the host for the opening ceremony.

Exhibitions, experiences, and play programs are also prepared. The "Drawing 100 Wounds" exhibition and "Migrant Background Story Wall" will be operated, and programs such as a photo booth, making message cards, caricatures, making pin badges, and making picture books will be conducted. Following the outdoor film festival, an online film festival and community screenings will continue throughout the month of November. The Save the Children Children's Rights Film Festival was first held in 2015 to build social consensus on the eradication of child corporal punishment, and the cumulative audience until last year is approximately 370,000 people.
