Providence Childrens Film Festival Inc

Presenting the best of independent and international children’s cinema to inspire, delight, educate, and connect a diverse community of children and families. More than just movies for kids. Films, workshops, conversations: Through the art of the moving image, PCFF inspires a new generation of thinkers and doers. The annual Providence Children’s Film Festival takes place in February at multiple venues within walking distance of downtown Providence, with over ten days of screenings, filmmaking workshops, and free activities, along with post-film conversations that help deepen the film-watching experience and foster critical thinking skills. During the festival, PCFF screens an average of 12 feature-length and over 200 short films—including live-action, documentary, and animation—made by filmmakers from around the world. Since 2014, PCFF has included the Youth Filmmaker Showcase, a juried program of films made by youth, followed by an opportunity for young filmmakers to talk about both the fun and the challenges they face during the creative process.
