Drawing the IFI Youth Panel screenings to a close before a summer break, you’re invited to Giuseppe Tornatore’s love letter to cinema, Cinema Paradiso – a story of a filmmaker’s childhood as he falls in love with the art of cinema. Forming a deep connection with the village projectionist, the lasting power of these foundational memories reverberate throughout his adult life.

A film chosen by both IFI Youth Panel and Wild Strawberries’ Bealtaine programming groups, cinema memories from both audiences will be shared at screenings in May.

The IFI Youth Panel is formed from 25 & Under cardholders who programme a monthly screening at the IFI.
