Insight into Audience Perception: Focus Group for Seniors

Designed for filmmakers and 60+ audiences.

Discussion between the 60+ audience and filmmakers

What does the audience expect from a film based on the synopsis, photos from the film, poster, or trailer? The programme offers filmmakers unique insight into the expectations and thinking of audiences over 60, while allowing 60+ viewers to share their opinions, experiences, and feedback directly with filmmakers.

This is a unique format of moderated discussion led by Lucie Dubravay Trautenberg, in which representatives of the audience with rich life experiences will have the floor. Viewers aged 60+ will thus have the opportunity to express their opinions and attitudes directly to Czech filmmakers and provide direct feedback on whether the final form of the film met their expectations based on the promotional materials for the specific work.

Lucia Dubravay Trautenberger lives in Bratislava, where she studied cultural management. She has experience in translation and journalism and has led several international cultural projects. She also served as executive director of the Biennial of Animation Bratislava. She is co-founder and co-owner of Bear With Me Distribution, where she serves as executive director and heads sales and international distribution. In addition, she is involved in managing a number of European projects focused on culture, creative industries, and democracy.
