![]() (b.2003) At the moment, Stella is entering her last year of high school, residing in Bali. Her love for the arts, creation, cinema, and learning opportunities brought her to the Minikino Youth Jury Camp 2019. Her expectations weren’t set but after 40+ films, it’s safe to say that the experience has cultivated her capacity to analyse films in a both critical and appreciative perspective. |
![]() (b.2002) I enjoy various forms of literature and have always been curious about how filmmakers process their images in order to deliver them in the form of a whole film. The Youth Jury Camp 2018 gave me the experience to judge on art pieces presented in a board of jurors, thus I didn’t merely judge the work solely from my own point of view. Youth Jury camp has taught me another perspective on seeing a movie, there’s much more side to just actors and plot. |
![]() (b.2004) At the moment, Qiu just entered high school, residing in Bali. Through the MFW Youth Jury Camp 2019, she got a chance to preview the world’s best selection of short films and critically discussed its context in an intense panel discussion with other participants. |

Being able to watch and analyze so many diverse films is a privilege that allows her to broaden the knowledge of this art. |
