Spectacular Shorts (U*)

Family Film Club

,Cinema 2
Still from Čuči Čuči

Back by popular demand, our sell out shorts programme from Family Film Week in 2022 is back!

We’ve put together a joyous selection of bite-sized film nuggets especially designed to introduce our youngest audience members to international cinema and differing animation styles. Look out for stop motion aliens in the kitchen, animals animated in the style of a Japanese scroll, a Latvian lullaby and much more!

Tagged with: Cinema family film club

Approx runtime 55min

 

Age recommendation: 4+

Adults can only come if they’re bringing a child, and children can only come along if accompanied by an adult. If you’re over 18, we’re afraid being a ‘big kid’ doesn’t count. 

Booking is essential, so please book your tickets before attending.
