ABOUT
​
Small World Cinema is a film club and festival for children, young people and families. Since 2015, our Family Film Club has been opening up a world of cinema to local audiences — from timeless classics to hidden gems from around the globe — in fun and interactive ways.
Our screenings are relaxed, welcoming and designed with everyone in mind. We especially support children and young people with additional needs, making sure families who may find regular cinemas challenging feel right at home.
​
Each film is paired with a creative activity that encourages playful exploration and helps young audiences notice new things on screen.
At a time when inclusion and togetherness matter more than ever, we celebrate the power of film to entertain, inspire and connect children to stories far beyond their own.
