Young Media Sharks 2015
For the past few years Baltic Film and Media School and International Short Film Festival Sleepwalkers go hand in hand. Although usually it’s in November when Sleepwalkers takes over BFM campus, then it was no different for the Young Media Sharks summer school in Latvia.
Sleepwalkers programme director and film critic Laurence Boyce and our own MA student Siiri Häidma held a workshop for the youngsters from Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus and Estonia. The youngsters got to hear about film criticism, writing in its different forms (and platforms) and were also given the Film Festival Survival Guide.
The students of the summer school also got to see several of Baltic Film and Media School award-winning documentaries:
Children of Karosta (2010) by Janis Jurkovskis
To Light (2015) by Nora Särak
Art of Life (2012) by Tiina Haak, Annamari Kenk
No Ticket, No Perfume (2015) by Aino Salmi
