BLON JUNIOR is full of exclusive, relevant and educational films. This programme is intended for the youngest participants in the festival. Such screenings are an important part of various film festivals around the world, allowing for the exploration of different animation techniques, styles and narratives. Our special screenings bring families together to enjoy a variety of animated films, from shorts to feature-length productions. The content is carefully curated to ensure it's suitable for children, but also appeals to an older audience. The films feature heartwarming stories, colourful characters and themes that tell the story of family, friendship, adventure and life lessons. The BLON Junior programme is divided into family screenings and workshops and events for schools.
