The ARIFF Film Child program aims to build a new generation of film audiences by giving underprivileged scholars from marginalised communities a unique cinema excursion that is not only memorable but help to cultivate creative and a better understanding of the film industry; that watching world-class films inside world-class theatres can unearth. The experience treats the film child to the traditional cinema culture, with popcorn, soda and a meal to enhance the experience. The program was launched to introduce young scholars to the art of film and to spark an interest in the arts form at tender age.
