Youth 9-12: When Things Change
Description
Four films for 9-12. The Flower by the Road is a dreamy journey without words, allowing us to make up our own story. In What’s the Film About?, two brothers and sisters refuse to talk about sex education. In A Place to Call Home, two young girls find themselves in an Alice in Wonderland-type world, searching for home. In With Grace, a family shows us how any setback can be overcome with a sense of humor.

Composition
the Flower by the Road
Age section 9-12 years. A few dreamlike glimpses into the life of a young girl who is on her way to meet a beloved friend, and for whom nothing exists but the here and now.
What’s the Film About?
Age section 9-12 years. Rehaan (11) and Mitra (8) don’t feel like the conversation that their mother, the director of this film, tries to start during their camping trip: she wants to tell them about inappropriate touch. It leads to comic and unexpectedly frank moments.
A Place to Call Home
For 9-12 year. A father and his 2 daughters have ended up in a beautiful, yet strange place. Something seems off. Where is everybody? How long will they stay here? And what happened to their friends and their parties?
With Grace
Age section 9-12 years. An upbeat tale in which 13-year-old Grace shows how her close-knit family, who live in rural Kenya and are completely dependent on the seasonal weather, are dealing with the consequences of climate change.

IDFA Competition for Youth Documentary
The IDFA Competition for Youth Documentary offers world-class films that challenge our understanding of youth documentary. Curated by filmmaker Niki Padidar, the selection showcases compelling films that take on complex realities and leave room for interpretation, presented for two distinct age groups: 9- to 12-year-olds, and 13-year-olds all the way to adulthood.
