Description
A fun morning program for children aged nine and older, featuring two great documentaries from this year’s IDFA selection—What's the Film About and With Grace—alongside the IDFA classic Anne Vliegt. After the screenings, the kids will get the chance to put questions to the filmmakers and protagonists of the films. This program is in Dutch. Tickets cost €10.
Composition
With Grace
Age section 9-12 years. An upbeat tale in which 13-year-old Grace shows how her close-knit family, who live in rural Kenya and are completely dependent on the seasonal weather, are dealing with the consequences of climate change.
What’s the Film About?
Age section 9-12 years. Rehaan (11) and Mitra (8) don’t feel like the conversation that their mother, the director of this film, tries to start during their camping trip: she wants to tell them about inappropriate touch. It leads to comic and unexpectedly frank moments.
Flying Anne
Eleven-year-old Anne is a cheerful girl who occasionally struggles with her Tourette syndrome: sometimes she spins in circles, or she has to lick everything in sight. (Dutch Spoken)
