Schulprogramm + Workshop Klasse 1-4: Kopf hoch, los geht’s

Kids + Family

Good friends are the most important thing in the world. They always know how the other is doing, help each other and are there for one another. But every great friendship starts out small – and some of the best friends are people who didn’t like each other in the first place.
In this programme, the films tell stories of encounters at significant moments: when someone feels sad or unsure, is ill or has to say goodbye. They offer encouragement, show how solidarity can be helpful and how to build self-confidence – and the importance of not feeling alone.
A film programme about emotions, friendship, and how we can overcome difficult situations together.

Moderation: Anke Jörns
