Fourteen films will be screened for free for children on June 1st.

Leading up to International Children's Day on June 1st, the Vietnam Film Institute is organizing a free film screening program called "Vietnam - Sweden Children's Film Week," taking place from June 1st to 5th.

The activity aims to provide children with a healthy and enriching cultural playground during the summer, while also contributing to strengthening cultural exchange between Vietnam and Sweden through the art of cinema.

The film week brings together many outstanding children's films from both countries, from classic Vietnamese animated films to popular children's books from Sweden.

The program not only gives children the opportunity to access films rich in educational and humanistic values, but also contributes to nurturing a love of cinema, imagination, and positive values in life.

Free screenings of 14 Vietnamese and Swedish children's films will be held to celebrate International Children's Day.

On the first day, young audiences will enjoy the Vietnamese animated film "The Fox Gets What He Deserves," directed by Le Minh Hien in 1960. On the same day, the famous Swedish children's film "Pippi Longstocking," directed by Olle Hellbom in 1969, will also be screened.

On June 2nd, audiences will be able to enjoy a series of Vietnamese animated films including "The Great Emperor's Journey" directed by Trinh Lam Tung, "The Story of Giong" and "The Kitten" directed by Ngo Manh Lan.

Continuing the program, on June 3rd, we will screen the Swedish children's film "Ronja - The Bandit's Daughter" directed by Tage Danielsson. This is a highly acclaimed work of Swedish children's cinema and is loved in many countries.

On June 4th, the film week presented a rich collection of Vietnamese animated works, featuring films from different eras. Besides familiar works like "The Toad and the Frog" and "The Miracle of Resurrection" by director Ngo Manh Lan, audiences also had access to new animated films produced in 2024 such as "The Spoiled Chicken Feather," "Neighbors," "The Caterpillar Turns into a Butterfly," and "The Warm Lamp."

Closing out the film week on June 5th are the Vietnamese animated film "The Talking Magpie" directed by Ngo Manh Lan and the Swedish children's feature film "The Lion Brothers" directed by Olle Hellbom.

Through this film week, the organizers hope to create opportunities for children to access many films with artistic and educational value, helping them have more meaningful experiences during the summer.

At the same time, the program also contributes to introducing to the public the unique characteristics of Vietnamese and Swedish children's cinema, promoting cultural exchange between the two countries.

In the context of increasingly diverse entertainment options for children, organizing free, educational film screenings is considered a practical activity that contributes to building a healthy cultural environment for children. This is also an opportunity for parents and children to enjoy films rich in humanistic values, thereby strengthening family bonds and nurturing children's souls through the art of cinema.
