The KIDS’ FILM FESTIVAL at the Opera Village is a discovery festival aimed at introducing African children and young people to the visual art of cinema. Over four days, we present a selection of films, documentaries, fiction, short films, and animations that reflect the everyday realities of children and youth on the African continent.

In addition, artistic workshops with experienced filmmakers are offered, where participants learn to create their own films, direct, and explore acting and animation. The festival’s educational approach fosters creativity, teamwork, and communication skills—making KIFIFE not only a creative platform but also a space that boosts children’s and young people’s self-confidence and contributes to intercultural exchange by facilitating connections between filmmakers from different African countries.
