About Subtitles
To enhance our very young viewer’s appreciation of foreign-language movies in the Children’s FilmFest, we provide the unique service of having actors read subtitles aloud, and we play these through individual headphones, which allows those who do not require the service to have an equally pleasurable film experience. We have a limited number of headsets, so the arrangement is first come, first served. The headphone symbol indicates these screenings.

Age Recommendations
Please bear in mind that the age ranges that follow each children’s film program description are approximations, and may reflect only consideration of a program’s length or subject matter and not necessarily whether the content is appropriate for your child. Every child is different and every parent has different standards.
