The Film Corner Clubs 2026-2028. From virtual to real (TFCClubs)

“The Film Corner Clubs 2026-2028. From virtual to real” project is addressed to a very mixed target from children aged 8 until young people aged 29 and beyond, and envisages the creation, in each of the countries involved, of locally-based hubs (called “Clubs”) that will both be charged of implementing local on site activities addressed to local target users in order to enhance their engagement in film and, on the other side, will cooperate with the consortium partners and associated partners to implement a set of cross-national activities which are in common among all countries.

Each “Film Corner Club” will be able to have a location, a physical place, will be able to associate members both adult, young audiences and school students and teachers, widening the target user ranges to 4 main target user categories. Each Club will draw up an annual program of activities for 2 years including 2 types of activities: common cross-national activities, that are implemented by all partners together, and local country-based activities, that are implemented autonomously by each partner at a local level, such as screenings of EU non-national arthouse films chosen from the project catalogue, on site activities and workshops related to The Film Corner platform formats and methodologies.The project activities strongly encourages user participation by adopting participatory methodologies focused on co-programming of cultural activities.

The widespread use of The Film Corner platform in various regions of the countries involved is included in the project as a common cross-national activity as an anchoring methodological reference.
