MONSTRINHA>MONSTRINHA COMPETITION

The MONSTRINHA Competition is divided into two big sections: one dedicated exclusively to schools, with screenings prepared within an educational context; and another focused on encouraging moments of animated fun for families. Fostered in collaboration with educators, the schools-exclusive screenings aim to promote direct contact between children, educators and animation film as an artistic expression and reflection of the world. The Family programme screenings are intended for young ones and grown ups that wish to share the animation film watching experience as a family.
