MO&Friese Children’s Short Film Festival:
The Mo&Friese Children’s ShortFilmFestival is one of the few film festivals for children, that presents exclusively short films. It has developed out of a special programme of the International ShortFilmFestival Hamburg. In 1999 it became an independent festival and has grown ever since. Besides children it attracts also a professional international audience.
The festival programme addresses kids and teens between 4 and 18 years. Especially pupils and preschool children are invited to movie screenings which take place in the mornings.Festival's aim is to establish - in consideration of educational aspects - besides animations and short fictions also documentaries and experimentals, furthermore to intrigue children and to fire their imagination.
The festival awards two age-graduated prizes to consider the different tastes of different ages. Two juries made up entirely of children will be given the job of deciding which short film will win the Mo&Friese Awards. The Friese-Award will be given to a film for children aged four to eight by the Friese-Children’s-Jury (8-10 years) and the Mo-Award will be given to one film for children aged nine to twelve, chosen by the Mo-Children’s-Jury (11-14 years). The Mo-Award is sponsored by German children’s magazine GEOlino. Both prizes will be worth 1500 Euro. The Awards ceremony takes place at the last day of the festival.
