SCREENINGS
Little Tony has been shining since birth. Despite his extraordinary gift, he spends all his time in his room, where his anxious parents guard him. Everything changes just before Christmas, when a crazy, bespectacled girl, Shelly, moves into the house. When they set out together to investigate the mystery of a menacing monster in an old apartment building, they form an unbreakable bond. A poetic story about self-acceptance and differentness, which is our greatest strength, will captivate children and adults alike. Whether we are big or small, we all carry a little light inside - we just need to know how to ignite it. The film received the prestigious jury award in the Contrechamp competition section at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival. After the movie, we will create a glowing figure together that will remind us that being different is not bad, that every one of us is unique and that thanks to our originality, we can meet new friends and experience new adventures. The workshop takes place after the film, lasts approx. 30 minutes, is free, but with limited capacity.
