Always a popular feature of any Discovery Film Festival, this collection of seven short films for our youngest viewers is sure to delight and amuse. We’ve gathered a variety of stories and styles from around the world – this year featuring films from Belgium, The Netherlands, Czech Republic, Canada, Uruguay and Switzerland.
Featuring curious capybaras, chef mushrooms, colourful body cells, woodland animals, an affectionate (and very hungry) crocodile, a voiceless cockerel, and a little girl who best communicates through drawings; the films in this programme focus on friendship and accepting difference; as well as promoting cooperation and understanding.
All these short films are dialogue free except for one film in English. These magical tales will delight children age 3+ and are a colourful introduction to the cinema experience.
Activity: Drop-in the Showroom Cafe Bar before and after the films to make simple stop motion animations using pen, paper, and your phone! Bring your own phone with space for the free 'Animade Frames' app.
Start Time: This screening will start at the advertised time. There are no adverts, though a small selection of trailers may play before the film.
