Synopsis
Colourful, imaginative, intriguing, amusing, moving… this collection of awarded short films for those aged eight and above is all of that and much more. The films in this screening are from France, Portugal, Brazil, Mexico and the UK and present an eclectic mix of styles ranging from watercolour, cut outs, stop-motion, hand-drawn and 2D computer animation. Equally diverse are the array of stories here which promise to entertain and enchant children and adults alike. In one film water dances through this world and flows at its perfect rhythm, until a hand interrupts that journey…
There are stories of little girls whose imaginations take them to fantastic places; one absorbed by a book that becomes a forest of printed knowledge while the other’s drawings magically come to life, helping her to process difficult emotions. There are also stories of children whose connection to animals (a rat and a crab) help them understand something significant about themselves. And in a summer campsite, a little boy laughs at couples kissing; however, he secretly wants to give it a try… Nearly all the films are dialogue free, with one in French language and another one with a brief line of poetry in Spanish. This programme is presented in partnership with Discovery Film Festival (Dundee Contemporary Arts).
Ticket for the screening includes a free activity for children. Join us from 10am for fun and surprises around amazing cinema!
