Belmont World Film’s 22nd Family Festival is a celebration of some of the world’s most imaginative films for and about children, brought to life on the big screen as a shared experience for children aged 3-12 and their families. More than half the selections are adapted or re-imagined from literature, and almost all are North American premieres.

Children age 5+ can also learn how to draw the Minions and Hotel Transylvania characters during a workshop by David Feiss, the co-director of the recently released animated film Hitpig! starring Jason Sudeikus. Feiss will also be on hand for a Q&A after the film’s screening.

“I just wanted you to let you know how much my family and I enjoyed the virtual offerings at Belmont World Film’s Family Festival! We really loved being able to experience movies from other places…Watching the films this way allowed us to read the subtitles aloud to our seven-year-old who is still learning to read. It also allowed us to discuss some things about the movies while we were watching them.” ~ Laura S.
