From June 13 to 22, 2025, Ukraine will host the 12th Children's Cinema Festival — the largest film festival for youth.

The festival will encompass around 10 cities, including Odessa.
All events will be free, allowing everyone to participate in the screenings. In Odessa, free showings will take place at the «Cinema City» in the FontanSky shopping center: one screening daily from June 13 to 22, 2025.

Organized groups of children with disabilities, orphans, and internally displaced persons are invited to attend. Additionally, everyone can participate by registering in advance on the official «Children's Cinema Festival» website.

The twelfth festival will be held in a hybrid format – both online and offline.  
 
The Children's Cinema Festival annually introduces youth to new European films and classics of world cinema. The festival's winner is determined by audience voting – upon entry, each visitor receives a ballot to rate the films.

The festival is organized by the film company «Arthaus Traffic» in collaboration with the NGO «Art of Cinema» and is supported by the State Film Agency of Ukraine.
