Smile International Film Festival’s initiative to take meaningful cinema to school across all parts of India is to sensitize children and youth through hand-picked quality films, with assortment of various topics starting from gender equality to environment, family values, friendship, aspirations, dream, self-confidence and importance of education from across the globe.
The festival reached Amravati on the 23rd of October 2018 wherein a number of meaningful movies, beneficial to school children were screened. The children enjoyed the movies and appreciated the values imparted through the films and promised to inculcate them in their daily lives.
