Children’s Cinemas
Even the little ones like to be enchanted by the big screen. From children’s cinema programs to cinema clubs and film workshops for children, a wide range of offers awaits you.
Read moreCinema is magic made of light: Stories are conjured up on the screen and invite us to discover the world over and over again. For the cinema experience to be right for children, however, an age-appropriate program is needed. Fortunately, there are several cinemas in the Children’s Region that tailor movie days and events to children and their families.
There are kids’ cinema clubs that frame and accompany the cinematic experience. Or workshops that allow kids to look behind the camera and try their hand at this creative medium themselves. After all, the tricks and technology of the film business are sometimes just as exciting as the films themselves.
