Our films are featured in the programme of the Ale Kino! International Young Audience Film Festival in Poznań.

Ale Kino! is the second oldest Polish film festival and the second oldest film festival for young audiences in the world.

The Festival runs from 23 to 30 November. - This is often a cinema that opens up to new perspectives, is surprisingly honest, and provides space for emotional experiences and discussions. Screenings are accompanied by meetings with filmmakers, film scholars, and experts, and post-film discussions help young people better understand themselves and the world around them, the organizers write. "

The Ale Kino! Festival is also an opportunity for active participation in the world of film. Young people are not only an audience but can also serve on the jury, create their own film sets, and participate in deciding on the awards."

We are happy to announce that in the festival program, which truly connects generations, we will show:
