Sony BBC, one of the most loved factual entertainment channels, has always been known for providing meaningful experiences to people. Building on its proposition, the channel has organised a *‘Summer Movie Festival’* in association with the National Council of Science Museums (NCSM) across cities for school students. Providing access to a mix of content across science, wildlife, adventure and exploration, and manufacturing genres, the first leg of the festival concluded at Bangalore’s Visvesvaraya Industrial and Technological Museum.
Taking students on an enriching educational journey, the films created an atmosphere of awe and inspiration for school children across the city. The event began in Bangalore on April 16 and captivated over 350 students across three days. The titles showcased each day were ‘Inside The Factory’, ‘Frozen Planet II’, and ‘South Korea with Alexander Armstrong’ respectively. The content was specially curated to transform the way children perceive and engage with science, nature and culture.
‘Inside The Factory’ fuelled the curiosity of students as they were taken on a visual tour of the pencil factory in Germany. The students learned many things, right from how pencils are made to the reason they are hexagonal. Narrated by Sir David Attenborough, ‘Frozen Planet II’, showcased peaks that create frozen habitats on Earth and the life that thrives in it. It is survival of the fittest as this region grapples with tough climatic conditions, struggle for food, and conditions such as avalanches and volcanic lakes. Whereas ‘South Korea with Alexander Armstrong’ depicted South Korea’s bustling downtown Seoul as Alexander visited Gangnam, the fabled district known for the popular ‘Gangnam Style’ video.
Throughout the event, students from various schools engaged in an educational adventure.
