AARHUS FILMFESTIVAL 08 – insight:outsight was on display between the 13-16 November 2008. With a main focus on experimental documentaries and short stories, the festival promoted awareness on global issues such as human rights, social and cultural diversity and the challenges around the present and future climate changes. These important headlines easily attracted about 2500 film lovers, and the festival was a great success. To increase the relevance of the festival the program was not only aimed at the adult audience. On the opening day 140 students from grades 8 -10  joined an early morning event, where a documentary called Recipes for Disaster (by John Webster, one of the Finnish advocates) was followed by a short debate about CO2 emissions, personal responsibility and possible personal actions. The audience had the opportunity to discuss these challenges with amongst others KaosPilot and British Council Climate Advocate Thomas Gjerulff, from the Danish branch of the Challenge Europe project.
