BRINGING THE MAGIC OF OUTDOOR FILM TO YOUR SCHOOL.

A Special feature that we hold dear to our hearts at Enchor Cinema is showcasing educational films to Rural High Schools, Tvet College and Youth.

We do not only focus on Films, we show Short stories with mostly south African content that directly speaks about social skills impacting our societies.

We engage, educate and create dialogue that will influence Personal change and inspire the spirit of Umntu ngumntu ngabantu in our communities.

We are changing rural lives young and old through film and documentaries that inspire to build and influence youth and adults alike to take full responsibility of their communities.

EDUCATION THROUGH CINEMATIC ENTERTAINMENT

OUR VISION

Enchor Film harnesses the storytelling power of film to educate the most visually literate generation in history.

Most of the critical issues that South Africa faces today are international in their scope and complexity, and our abilities as a nation to meet these challenges will be strengthened by a greater understanding of our global interdependence.

Aligned with various initiatives, Enchor Film believes that helping youth in Rural areas develop this kind of worldview and understanding should be a primary 21st century educational goal.

Our educational program has proven to be effective in connecting cultures, building youth that puts self-development and personal leadership through Film at the centre of their life journey, broadening world-views, teaching for global competency and building a new paradigm for best practices in education.

OUR IMPACT

Enchor Films Program address a variety of Local and global issues. We use film to engage students in meaningful examinations of human rights, poverty and hunger, stereotyping, environmental issues, global health, personal development and leadership, embracing culture and language, gender roles, entrepreneurship and careers. All while meeting today’s educational standards.

Our hope is that the impressions and lessons from the films selected by Enchor Film and School management will continue to echo in their hearts and minds for years to come, inspiring today’s students to become cross-culturally competent, productive and compassionate adults, young leaders who will impact their society and add value by taking responsibility.

WHAT WE DO

We combine the power of moving and provocative films with the highest quality standards-based lesson plans to inspire and engage students in learning.

SELECT FILMS

Our team reaches into the global film market to find feature-length, narrative and documentary films to engage students in active learning. We look for films that are meaningful and mind-expanding, age-appropriate and provocative. We find films that will inspire and ignite passion. Some of the films tell stories of young people from faraway countries and cultures. Some explore issues such as poverty, young entrepreneurs, emotions and self-governance, freedom of the press, gender equity, climate change and pandemics, social media, money etc. inspiring to change and develop our communities.

TEACH EMPATHY AND GLOBAL COMPETENCY

Enchor Film has selected powerful age-appropriate documentaries and international films that offer windows into our world. The films transport students beyond borders and boundaries. They move beyond lectures and textbooks to provide insight, transform preconceptions and prejudices, and foster genuine cultural understanding as well as understanding the bigger world we live in start appreciating and being responsible for their world and communities. Our films teach empathy for people and communities beyond the individual's frame of reference.

DEVELOP CURRICULUM GUIDES

Using films as springboards for interdisciplinary lesson plans, a team of top-notch educational experts, subject-area specialists and editors come together to develop high-quality curricula for teaching core academic subjects. Students move beyond engrossing movie narratives toward deeper learning.

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT FOR TEACHERS

We are working on educators receiving specialized instruction to maximize our prepared curriculum and learn how to use film in the classroom in ways that meet core educational standards. We offer one, two and three-day workshop options. We will be creating online professional development courses and webinars in the fundamentals of teaching with film, as well as film specific courses.
