The PERSPEKTIVEN film festival is part of the zum beiSPIEL:MENSCHENRECHTE! project from Kulturhaus Arthur in Chemnitz and was launched as a cultural production accompanied by the ASA-FF e.V.’s neue unentd_ckte narrative program.

The aim of the project is to use age-appropriate methods to teach children and young people about human and children’s rights in workshops, thereby breaking down prejudices. The low-threshold medium of film is intended to reach a wider audience. The first film festival took place in the Metropol cinema in 2023 and in the Weltecho cinema in 2024.

In an increasingly ageing society, this format is intended to give young people in particular space for their interests and perspectives. This is implemented by the youth film jury. They support the organization of the festival, decide which films are shown and moderate the post-screening discussions. In addition, we aim to make the festival accessible to as many people as possible and get them interested in the topic of human rights.

All information about the festival can be found on the homepage.
