Wrap! Must see European cinema for Young People (formerly known as European children’s film catalogue/ECFC) YEAR 2
Start date: Sep 1, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The main objective of the project is to build a catalogue of European films for children, with accompanying educational materials, and to facilitate educational distribution to reach as many schools and young audiences with these films and learning materials, with as many European partners and in as many European countries as possible. In this application the activities of year 2 of the project are described. It will be the roll out of the 10 films acquired in year 1 for established and new partners and the acquisition of another 7-10 new films for the catalogue..Contacts with the cinemas, festivals and schools are extended, awareness of the importance of film literacy is raised, but the implementation and roll-out of film literacy programs in the school-year planning and cinema programming needs a minimum of two to three years. Therefore we also shortly describe year 3 of the project. 6 partners across Europe ( Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Norway, Finland and Sweden) have committed to put their children’s film knowledge, film literacy expertise, film industry connections and finances into this project. In return, the project will facilitate partnerships and co-operation among European organisations from diverse geographical and cultural backgrounds, it will enable the transfer of knowledge and working practices; and nurture a European-wide exchange of films, ideas, learning materials, and, importantly, best practice in teaching film literacy. In Year 2, the most important steps are to distribute the films of Year 1, to set a new procedure for film selection, to buy new films for the catalogue, a minimum of seven titles – which will amount to at least 21 different language versions of these films (with all the acquisition, print and film materials, dubbing and subtitling implications). Also, to write, translate, and expand the learning materials, to make them accessible, and last but not least to organize teacher training.
