Who we are

Balóss Milan Junior Film Festival is dedicated to short films – Italian and international – conceived and created by children and young people between 8 and 20 years old.
The festival also hosts conferences, seminars and insights on Film and Media Education promoting debate, exchange and sharing of experiences between different realities and networks from all over the world.
Balóss is organized by Circonvalla Film ETS, which is based in the Dergano-Bovisa district of Milan and which, for more than 20 years, has been involved in the promotion and diffusion of cinematographic culture by acting with inclusive and structured projects – starting from school age – outside and inside the school environment.

The competition is divided into two categories: Kids for young authors from 8 to 13 years old and Teen for young authors from 14 to 20 years old.
The festival enhances cinema as an educational, didactic and pedagogical tool, giving visibility to projects that otherwise would not have any outside the context in which they were produced.
The jury is composed entirely of young Italian and European students.
The Balóss Milan Junior Film Festival is dedicated to the director Ermanno Olmi, who loved making films with kids and non-professional actors for the great authenticity they knew how to bring in front of the camera.
