If the Sens-Fiction association is best known in Sens for organizing the CLAP 89 short film festival for 36 years, it is also involved in image education.
We have been working for more than 10 years with the cinema section of the Janot high school and the Sénonais colleges: in addition to organizing school outings and trips, film screenings and meetings with cinema professionals, the association s aims to give students an active role as juries during the CLAP 89 festival.

This year, we would like to build similar relationships with the primary schools of Sens through a simple idea: a festival of short youth films organized by and for primary school pupils (6-12 years old).
