FILM CHALLENGE we made 6 films for the 2009 edition of the festival, and our friends from doost show 3 films made by them.
We are currently thinking what will be the challenge for 2010!
For the third year running, Nueva Generation and RefugeeYouth presents Refuge in Films 2009 at the British Film Institute (BFI). Refuge in Films festival is dedicated to raising awareness about refugee and migrant issues. In 2009, the festival is being entirely developed by a group of young people. By giving a voice to young refugees, the festival will address issues of representation of refugees and migrants in the film industry and will be a space of celebration, contributing to a more tolerant society.
The festival has been curated by a group of young people (19-25 years old) from New Generation and RefugeeYouth that come from different countries: Colombia, Somalia, Ethiopia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Eritrea, Zambia, Congo, Sudan, Rwanda, Palestine, Kosovo, Algeria, Angola, Guinea, Mauritius, Bangladesh, France and England. They met weekly over three months to watch films and discuss them from different angles and came up with an amazing programme to be presented at the BFI for the celebration of Refugee Week,
Refuge in films 2009 has developed a Film Challenge in which young people produced short films about immigration and refuge in collaboration with professional filmmakers and Grain Media.
The grand opening of Refuge in Films 2009 will take place on Friday the 19th of June, at the Delegates Centre BFI, where we are screening the films produced by young people especially for the festival at our film challenge. In addition RefugeeYouth will be launching “Becoming a Londoner” a book produced by young people, about their own experiences in the process to become part of their new city. We are preparing dance and music performances it will be a night in which young people form different communities in London will get together to share their diversity.
During Saturday 20th and Sunday 21st June, Refuge in Films will present a programme of films to be published, and alongside the films there will be different visual workshops for young people at the BFI Southbank’s Delegate Centre, and a photography exhibition by Mustakbal and World Remix artists.

LEARN THE FACTS, Read the UN Report on War Crimes in Gaza
"The report concludes that the Israeli military
operation was directed at the people of Gaza as a whole, in furtherance of an
overall and continuing policy aimed at punishing the Gaza population, and in a
deliberate policy of disproportionate force aimed at the civilian population.
The destruction of food supply installations, water sanitation systems,
concrete factories and residential houses was the result of a deliberate and
systematic policy which has made the daily process of living, and dignified living,
more difficult for the civilian population."
This Friday our documentary film To Gaza With Love is being screened at the excellent Portobello Film Festival, as part of a whole night of Palestinian Films,
The easiest way to get to the Studios is from Westbourne Park Station
on the Hammersmith and City line. Buses 23, 28, 31 and 328 stop
either outside or very near the station. Buses 18, 36 and 7 are
fairly close.
From the station turn right and then right again past the pub. You
will need to walk through the Tavistock Crescent paved area for about
two minutes. In front of you will be The Mother Black Cap pub. To the
right of the pub you will see a pedestrian and cycle bridge. Cross
the bridge. turn right and Westbourne Studios will be in front of you.
Hope you can all make it, it is going to be a very fantastic and inspiring night.
If you would like to show our film, please get in touch.
