Organize an inspiring film debate
It's an opportunity to bring together parents, teachers, educators, students, citizens, and educators around a universal topic : Education.
Constructive and full of hope, "Freedom to be" invites us to reflect together on our visions of education and to adapt our attitudes and practices.
A film can sometimes challenge our certainties, awaken awareness, and open up new perspectives. This is the power of the film debate: a lively, collective moment, where the screening becomes the starting point for shared reflection and collective emulation.
€50 = film link for 1 month + technical guide for hosting the film debate + screening and communication kit.

SYNOPSIS
Sébastien, the director of a youth services department, is experiencing a burnout that calls into question the meaning of his commitment. With his wife Eva, also an educator, they decided to leave their jobs to make a film about education. Together, they explore educational initiatives around the world, led by women and men who think and teach differently.
Throughout this journey, their quest broadens. They become aware of the profound influence society has on our individual freedoms and question the role of education in collective transformation. Their film thus becomes a call to rethink our relationship with learning, freedom, and how we can collectively build the world of tomorrow.
