Hand-picked world explorer programme with short films from the current Tricks for Kids competition that make you want to discover new things and experience magical adventures together. Our protagonists show us the world through their eyes: About friendship, the seasons and even a birthday cake with a bite. Beastly fun especially for pre-school groups. The programme is professionally moderated and foreign-language films have a live German voice-over. If the filmmakers are festival guests, they will of course come to the cinema to answer the questions of their young audience. With advance registration only.
