Children's Film Festival 2004
Children on the Margin Create Films

Festival Teams 2004

Preparations for this year's festival took over one year's work. A large team of organizers worked daily to finish preparations for the festival on time. The forming of a Children and Youth Selection Committee was a new idea for this year's festival. AL-JANA decided it was important that films in a festival for children and youth be selected by their peers. Both this committee and the Young Journalist team generally participated in the organization of the festival. They were active in all aspects of the preparations.
