KRUTÓN LAB

A platform for audiovisual education, film literacy, and audiovisual professionals.

KRUTÓN LAB is an upholding project of the KRUTÓN Association, which connects all of the association's activities in the field of audiovisual education and film literacy. We create a space where teachers, students, viewers, and professionals from the fields of film, festivals, cinemas, and game development can meet together.

KRUTÓN LAB is a living ecosystem: we explore new methods and formats, test them directly with students and teachers, share our know-how with cultural institutions, and engage creators and experts. We work with data to better understand the needs of audiences and the professional sphere, and contribute to systemic changes in the field of audiovisual literacy.
