Penguins at a party. Among them a penguin waitress with a bottle of wine.

A Short Film Programme for Nursery and Pre-school Children

Early preoccupation with moving images and their playful communication are becoming increasingly important in the course of digitalisation. By preparing for and following up on films together, children can familiarise themselves with a special kind of cinema by talking to a media educator. The selected short films present the musical journey of a duo who discover the magnificent forms and colours of the jungle (Toto Bona Lokua – Ma Mama), a penguin waiter who stirs up a party (Pinguin), they observe a day in the forest (De Natura) and accompany a little girl on her first bicycle tour (Cycle).
