Held in Swedish

This spring marks 30 years since the first School Cinema Day was organised in collaboration with BUFF. We want as many people as possible to celebrate with us, which is why we’ve made the event free of charge. Come along and listen to inspiring and renowned expert speakers. We’ll treat you to cake and non-alcoholic bubbly during the break. The evening continues with traditional mingling alongside other festival guests.
