The California International Children’s Film Festival’s provides a showcase platform for entertaining, educational and inspiring children based projects from around the world.

The CICFF is a biannual event that focuses on bringing together talented filmmakers of all ages that want to share their diverse and compelling stories about and/or by children. We curate and present the best independent and international cinema projects so our audiences and filmmakers will have a delightfully worthwhile screening and networking experience.

All genres of fiction and non-fiction are accepted. There will also be nine awards up for grabs: Audience Award, Best Feature Film, Best Short Film, Best Documentary, Best Student Film, Best Music Video, Best Animation, Best Experimental and Best Script.
