KUKI – International Short Film Festival for Children and Youth Berlin

From its humble beginnings as a children’s film section at the interfilm Festival in 2000, KUKI’s growing success led to its eventual emancipation in 2008 when KUKI, the International Short Film Festival for Children and Youth Berlin celebrated its first edition as a festival in its own right. Known for its exceptional programming, KUKI is dedicated to presenting fabulous and unusual films that young people would otherwise rarely get a chance to see.

The festival comprises 3 KUKI competition programmes for children and 2 TeenScreen competition programmes for youth, the lively kindergarten screening for 4-6 year olds (with presenters and live-music), short documentaries, foreign language programmes (for ages 14+) in English, Spanish, and French as well as an environmental programme. www.kuki.de/en
