The HAITI KIDS KINO PROJECT


Organised by the Cube Cinema's children’s wing, Nanoplex, The HAITI KIDS KINO PROJECT will screen films for Haitian children, while providing workshops and equipment for them to make their own films. These will be shown to Haitian audiences, and then back here in the UK.  Similarly, children’s films made through the Cube’s Nanoplex, will go to the Dominican Republic border.
 
Sharing the experience of making and watching films, while offering temporary childcare facilities, this is a goodwill project to provide a small opening for escape, community, emotion and social occasion.
 
Children are experiencing untold damage and despair. Further anxiety grows through inaction, loneliness and boredom. The HAITI KIDS KINO PROJECT is working in dialogue with established NGO’S, to contribute to quality of life through creating, sharing, forging friendships and connections, and watching films.
 
Two Cube Volunteers will be going out at the end of February, and we are raising funds for screens, cameras, films, vaccines, flights, etc.

'Cinema Kib ape organiz ene banne cinema socyal temporer a kot pu vinne en l aide banne zanfan ki finne soufer dans tremblement la t erre dans Haiti.'
 
This is a Big mission for a Little Microplex and we would love to have your support, so spread the word and dip into your magic pockets of love.

MORE INFO

 

The Haiti Kids Kino Project is organized by The Cube Cinema's Nanoplex.
 
Nanoplex is an offshoot of The Cube that accommodates young minds, encourages active learning and creativity and hosts workshops, cabarets, film screenings and gigs.
 
The Cube is a volunteer-run organisation, based in inner-city Bristol, active in community life, producing and exhibiting art and culture. The Cube was set up to provide people who want to get involved with an outlet, a cultural and social exchange, and with something good to do. Recognised for innovation, open-source administration and resistance to difficult times, the Cube also has experience of setting up cultural exchanges and cinemas in challenging locations (Cornish tin mines, abandoned multi-story car parks, permaculture gardens, festivals over Europe, Nepal and even in Newcastle)

As a provider of grass roots cultural exchange this is the most direct humanitarian response that The Cube can offer

The HAITI KIDS KINO PROJECT will initially be based in the Dominican Republic/Haiti Border (where many Haitian refugee children are based) and only intends to move to Haiti if conditions allow.

The Cube Cinema is a non-funded, volunteer-run organisation - and help towards this, however small or large, makes a crucial difference to getting this project under way.
