Family, identity and culture in German cinema: KS3 German study day

A study day using films to explore German culture through the lens of identity and diversity.

Almanya: Welcome to Germany (2011)

10:30am – 2:30pm, Wed 08 May 2024, BFI IMAX

This study day designed for KS3 German students will use a variety of short films and clips from feature films to explore German culture through the lens of identity and diversity. The focus of this study day is the application of prior knowledge of curriculum topics such as family, friendship, identity and diversity through analysis of key scenes in films such as Almanya (2011), Lessons of a Dream (2011) and Head Full of Honey (2014).

The day will be conducted predominantly in German and students will be encouraged to engage in activities and speak in the target language where possible.

The afternoon will be comprised of an introduced screening of a suitable feature film. A supporting resource pack will be available on the day.
