What was born as a desire to introduce children’s cinematography to Albania has now become a tradition which every year is including more of the main towns of the country. This film festival will be held this year in Saranda, Vlora, Pogradec, Durres and Lezha with five films produced over the last two years, productions that will be judged by international experts and in which at least 120 children take part. This is the fourth edition of this festival and it opened in Saranda-the only festival for children’s films.The films that will be presented are “Amici per la vita” (Friends for life) Irish production, “Fia the little magician” a Norwegian production, “Misa dei lupi” (Misa of the Wolves), Swiss production, Effetti pericolisi” (Dangerous effects), Swiss-Danish cooperation “Aiuti, sono un ragazzo..!” “Help I am a boy…!) Produced in Germany. Festival President Namik Ajazi said that it had been a wish of the organizers to bring the festival to Saranda for some time.
