This article discusses La Guarimba, a cultural organization in the South of Italy responsible for organizing La Guarimba International Film Festival. La Guarimba has initiated a few other projects, such as the cinema school – La Scuola Delle Scimmie (‘the Monkey’s School’) – which aim to utilize their skills to develop a school that would involve both locals and refugees working together in film-making.

The school aims to help the participants understand people with different histories and perspectives, establish friendships among the youth involved, and create documentaries about their experiences.
