The iChange competition challenges students from all over the world to create a powerful message about climate change and potential solutions through an original 30-second video ad. The video can tell a story to
raise awareness about climate change, encourage action, and/or propose potential solutions.
The competition is open to individuals and teams (of up to 5 persons, ages 18-35) currently enrolled in a university program. Winners will be awarded in Milan at the International GrandPrix Advertising Strategies
event in late May, 2013. The winning ad will be shown at film festivals in Cannes, New York, and Beijing. The 5 finalists will each receive a 2,000 Euros scholarship and will be invited to travel to Milan to attend
the GrandPrix. The final winner will receive an additional scholarship from TVN Media Group of 3,000 Euros (for a total of 5,000 Euros), and the winning ad will become an official C4C video. The deadline for
submissions is May 1, 2013 11.59pm EST.
If you believe the iChange competition would be of interest to your students, we would be thrilled if you encouraged them to participate in this effort to amplify youth voices on climate change.

Sõprus näitab Fellini haruldasi filme
Life is a combination of magic and pasta!
3.-14. oktoobrini vältab Sõpruses maailma filmikunsti enim mõjutanud autori Federico Fellini haruldane retrospektiiv, mille raames saab näha pea kõiki meistri tähtteoseid.
Federico Fellini sügavalt isiklikud, imiteerimatud filmid on ainulaadsed kombinatsioonid mälestustest, unenägudest, fantaasiast ja kirest. Fellini oli üks 20 sajandi humanistlikumaid režissööre, kelle unikaalne filmikeel sidus sürreaalse karnevali sotsiaalse kriitikaga.
Federico Fellini teosed pälvisid 12 Oscari nominatsiooni, võites neist 5 ja lisaks veel lugematul hulgal auhindu, millede loetlemine tundub Fellini inimliku soojuse mõõtme kõrval täiesti ebaoluline.
Peale Fellini surma kirjutas kriitik Stanley Kauffmann: "Paljud režissöörid on õnnistanud meid oma kunstiteostega aga ainult Fellini iga film mõjub kui südamest tulnud kingitus parimalt sõbralt".
Fellini retrospektiivi korraldab kino Sõprus oma hea sõbra Tambet Tuisu kaasabil ning Kultuurkapitali toel.
Sõpruse ekraanile heiastuvad maestro Fellini teosed otse 35 mm filmilindilt ja eestikeelse tõlkega:
LA STRADA / TEE (1954)
LA DOLCE VITA / MAGUS ELU (1960)
8 1/2 (1963)
ROMA / FELLINI ROOMA (1972)
AMARCORD (1973)
E LA NAVE VA / JA LAEV SÕIDAB (1983)
Lisaks saab näha dokumentaalfilmi:
FELLINI: I'M A BORN LIAR / FELLINI: MA OLEN SÜNDINUD VALETAJA (2002)
Piletid 4/5 EURO saadaval Sõpruse kassas ja Piletilevis!
