Brazil - In the Week of Youth, the Salesian Youth Centre, Manicoré, presents the award-winning DBGYFF short films
Manicoré, Brazil - October 2023 - In the Week of Youth, the Salesian Youth Centre in Manicoré, belonging to the Salesian Province of Brazil-Manaus (BMA), screened the short films awarded at the Don Bosco Global Youth Film Festival (DBGYFF) on 26 October. The traditional “good afternoon” was organised by the pastoral animator, Adriano Costa, who presented a summary of how the festival came about, synopses and film screenings. The students and educators present were able to reflect on the stories presented in each short film centred on the festival theme 'Love builds peace and solidarity'. Encouraging this practice in Salesian environments is very important, especially in small towns without cinemas, such as the city of Manicoré, 331 kilometres from Manaus, said Adriano Costa.
