Theorem of fire explains the development of a fire with different visual effects, scales and comments. It also describes how a smoke detector works using special effects and close-ups.

The film recommends the right behaviour in case of a fire and explains how an emergency call centre works as well as the fire department.
The 4-minute film 'Et si c'était toi?' was produced in 2008 by 17 to 18-year old students of the secondary school Lycée Technique du Centre in Luxembourg. With the generous time and effort of students of class 3IF1 and their French teacher, this film was made largely outside of school hours, in the framework of the project 'School without violence' (Lycée Sans Violence). An educational guide discusses the topics of bullying and suicide, the warning signals, suggested attitudes towards a victim and the guide also facilitates an interactive group session.
