Join us for FilmSlam at CIFF49!

FilmSlam is the Cleveland International Film Festival’s (CIFF) media literacy program and mini-festival of films for students in grades 5-12. FilmSlam® provides students with the ability to evaluate and critique the messages they perceive when viewing films — while encouraging thought-provoking discussion, embracing curiosity and fueling creativity, and experiencing social emotional growth. FilmSlam® will take place at Playhouse Square: March 28 and 31 and April 1 - 4, 2025.

All film programs and post-screening Q&As will be completed by 11:45 AM
