ABCinema is a film literacy project aimed at the broad young audience (3-25). It aims to better coordinate and enhance the activities until now carried out independently by several of the most important cinetheque/film archives across Europe, at the same time involving also no-profit organizations specialized in film literacy and audience development. It will cover activities performed within and outside the schools. The submitted project wants to create an experimental catalogue (for film literacy) of films available to every partners’ country (rights cleared) in the first year, that will consist of 18 titles and to allow an exchange of best practice between "peers", using the best experiences coming from each member, and putting them in common in two different training sessions (July 2014, March 2015), in which each member of the group will be alternatively tutor or learner. The transferred skills, will be tested in the field with specific initiatives by each partner from Oct-Feb and Apr-Jun, in correspondence with the school calendar of each country. It will be part of the group also a non-profit organization (Watershed Arts Trust) specialized in training and facilitation that will help the members during the exchange of experiences and will train the members about an innovative Social Media approach on our more difficult target (Young Adults 18-25 outside the school environment). At the end of the project, ACE (Association of Cinematheques of Europe) will perform the work of analysis and dissemination of project results at the institutional level, incouraging other film literacy and cultural entities to join the ABCinema project.
