Film in hospital

An international project with online platform where children with limited mobility watch the best youth films.

jef in het ziekenhuis

The user-friendly online platform gives you access to the best youth films all year round.

Moreover, every year during Youth Film Festival Antwerp a part of the festival program is put online. This way, children can enjoy a unique festival experience from the hospital, rehabilitation center or even at home, and even receive a prize.

Also available throughout the year are even more unique short and feature-length films. Each film features additional online activities. Children can post their opinions about the films and give the films stars. Through the online media lab they can discover the latest apps and games tailored to their needs and learn to experiment with film themselves. In this way, children can share their own stories and creativity from their hospital beds.
