Over 1400 students take part in the BCN Sports Film Festival 2026 in-person school screenings
BCN Sports Film Festival has held its in-person school screenings, bringing sports cinema to 1467 students from 27 schools. The programme is designed to be explored in the classroom—through emotion and discussion—focusing on values such as commitment, justice and social change, with screenings and dialogue spaces tailored to students.
Cinema to reflect, share and discuss
Throughout the week, the festival welcomed school groups at its venues, with a selection of films that invite students to talk about overcoming challenges, coexistence, inclusion and responsibility, presenting sport not only as competition, but also as an educational and transformative tool.
“Prenent consciència”: the Acció Cinema session with AE Ramassà as ambassador organisation
A key highlight within the school programme was “Prenent consciència”, presented within the framework of Acció Cinema, with AE Ramassà as the ambassador organisation this year. The session included the screening of the short film Soka, co-directed by AE Ramassà, which takes viewers into Kibera (Kenya) through a journey combining sport and solidarity.
After the screening, students took part in a post-film dialogue with Tijan Konteh, Head of Awareness-Raising at AE Ramassà, expanding the conversation on how sport can become a driver of awareness and social action.
School sessions continue online
Following the success of the in-person screenings, schools can now continue to enjoy the BCN Sports Film Festival online. This format allows more educational centres to access the festival’s special programme, offering the opportunity to explore the values of sport and cinema from the classroom.
