Post-screening sharing: Film-Themed Picture Book Sharing Session – Talking with Children About Life, Death, and Remembrance
Death does not mean disappearance. Humans have various activities and rituals to commemorate the deceased. Many religions and folk cultures believe that those who have left will continue to accompany us in some form. The event will guide parents and children to talk about the past through small games and sharing some picture books on related themes.
