This case study describes the experience of 'Le cinéma, cent ans de jeunesse' and the Understanding Cinema project at an after-school film club at Granton Primary School in Edinburgh from 2016 to 2017. It does so from the perspective of the teachers, filmmaker and students involved and focuses in particular on the production of the students' film See You Tomorrow, about a young girl dealing with racist bullies. Exploring the processes undertaken as part of the project and the students' responses to them, this study ultimately advocates for the benefits of using both practical and theoretical approaches to film in primary classrooms.
