Momo discovers C the Unseen

International children’s short film project with MOMO – THE MONKEY INFLUENCER

P: Jan Pohrom
Momo the toy monkey is an Instagram phenomenon. Hailing from Ireland, the quirky character travels the world, always on the lookout for the next tourist attraction. His mission: to make his audience smile… or roll their eyes. Momo – The Monkey Influencer is coming to Chemnitz with a short film project entitled MOMO DISCOVERS C THE UNSEEN. Assisted by a film crew and Adam Bechovsky, the man behind Momo, children from the Capital of Culture region and the Czech Republic will shoot their very own cinematic adventure – discovering filmmaking, the beauty of the Ore Mountains and the power of teamwork along the way. The short film will premiere in Chemnitz in July and then be screened by the project partners in Zschopau, Marienberg, Olbernhau and Prague. It has also been invited to the ELBE DOCK short film festival in Dresden, and will have another premiere in Malta, supported by the Sir Arturo Mercieca Primary School in Gozo, also known as the »Happy School«.
