The 2024 festival theme, “Finding Joy Together,” celebrates children and families’ unique stories, creating a vibrant space for kids to share their experiences. The films you will see in this festival reflect the power of friendship, teamwork, and relying on your community to find happiness and belonging in the face of challenges. The theme continues with kid-centric film workshops and panels — through play and active discovery, participants gain a greater understanding of film techniques and technologies while building confidence and curiosity.
