2012 | Books | Seminars & Conferences
From 1st to 8th July, NISI MASA–European Network for Young Cinema hosted Bright Young Screens, a workshop seminar where participants developed an intercultural dialogue and non-formal education through young film festivals.
The 6 day long seminar, which took place during FEST – Training Ground in Espinho (Portugal), was a total blast and among its guests, we had Marion Klotz (Memento Films), Paz Lázaro (Panorama, Berlinale), Scandar Copti (director and producer of “Ajami”), Liz Harkman (director manager of Encounters, Bristol) and NISI MASA friends Tomas Prasek (Eventival) and Wim Vanacker (NISI MASA’s Head of Script Department).
Now, we are proud yo show you the book of Bright Young Screens, where you will find a complete summary of all that we discussed in Espinho!

Human Rights & Audiovisual Culture E-Book
The ‘Human Rights & Visual Culture’ publication is based on a youth seminar which was organised by NISI MASA, together with its Turkish members NISI MASA Turkey/VideA, in Ankara in November 2005. This cross-cultural event gathered almost 30 participants from 14 European countries and local audiences. It dealt with the promotion of Human Rights values through cinema and visual culture. Besides encouraging intercultural dialogue, the organisers of this unique encounter intended to raise awareness concerning the importance of making a broader use of audiovisual works and tools to promote human rights in Europe.
