This year, MONSTRA has prepared, with much love and care, a very special program for children and adults – MONSTRINHA Family Program! It starte off with a special screening on the 20th of March and continues throughout the weekends of 23/24 and 30/31, also March, with many different films to watch, workshops and exhibitions. We will have: short film competitions and short films from this year’s guest country – Canada – that were carefully selected for children, some films that are absolute premieres worldwide and that have won many awards; films that celebrate special anniversaries, such as one of TinTin greatest adventures or Mickey Mouse’s 90th birthday; 2 features films in our feature film competition; films that translate Claude Roy and Paul Paul Eluard poetry, through animation; wonderful Patar & Aubier films; Baby Monstrinha, a special program for babies from ages 0 to 3, with a loop-screening, to allow parents and children to move around freely, without missing any movie; a film that tells the life of a young Leonardo da Vinci, celebrating the 500th anniversary of his death; some films and episodes that have shown on ZigZag – RTP; and some very special workshops for families.
