8 1/2 Foundation

8 1/2 Foundation

8 1/2 Foundation is a Scottish-based not-for-profit organisation dedicated to introducing world cinema to children. Its aim is to create a new birthday: a movie birthday, at the age of 8 1/2, that celebrates the power of cinema to expand children’s horizons and welcomes children into the wider world of movies, beyond what is normally available to them at the multiplex or on their TV screens.
We seek to inspire kids, families, schools and everyone else to think of a child’s 8 1/2 birthday as their Film Birthday. To help celebrate, our lovely website www.eightandahalf.org has twinkly stars and recommendations of scores of great films to see.
