2021 Formentera Film devotes session to local youth

cartell 2021 ff2021FF2021 (Formentera Film 2021) gets started 1 May, and this year’s opening session is one for local youth. The evening of screenings will be presented by Xènia Fuertes, with viewers gathering under the stars and outside the Casal de Joves from 8.30pm. Capacity at the free event is limited, but admission is open to all youth over 12.

The session will comprise seven short films —documentaries, fiction and animated features— plus a handful of “extrafest” videos. Later in the evening, the audience will pick the best of the bunch, with the winner to be announced the evening of 15 May. Attendees will also have the chance to see a video shot in April with participants in the Casal de Joves’ street-dance course.

Other extrafest programming will include screenings of two films: On és Pere Miquel, a short made during a FF2019 workshop, and Help, filmed over four days during the same festival.
