Children of Chance
In the small local school of Cheratte, a former mining town, 11-year old students with and immigrant background are coming to the end of their primary school education with Brigitte.

Debate: Children deserve equal opportunities! How education can make a difference in communities
Following the screening of Children of Chance, we are hosting a debate on Thursday 23 September at 19:00 CEST. This month is dedicated to fighting inequalities through stronger social policies in Europe.
Education is among the sectors hardest hit by the pandemic and one of the most underfunded public sectors in several countries in Europe. But education has a great potential to change communities.
We will discuss education as a tool of empowerment and equal opportunity for all citizens, and the difference ambitious educational programs can make in the lives of children today.
Themes
Each month, the Green Screen is dedicated to a key theme to build a better future for Europe. On the third week of each month, a film screening will be made available for free on our platform for 48 hours, on Wednesday and Thursday. Then, you can follow a live debate on an issue inspired by the film, which will take place on Thursdays at 19:00 CEST. You can follow it on the Green Screen website or on our YouTube channel.
Artistic spot
Artistic expressions often seek to enact change. Berthold Brecht once said that “Art is not a mirror held up to reality, but a hammer with which to shape it.” The Green Screen features European artists whose work engages with the theme of defining a better future for all. They will be showcasing a variety of art forms, including poetry, music, painting and theatre.
