The short film programme for primary schools with films from the current Tricks for Kids competition makes you want to discover new things, explore foreign cultures and different realities, and go through life with open eyes. Disappeared socks, stories from the campsite or dancing pigs – there is something here for everyone. 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 screening and answer the questions of their young audience. With advance registration only.
