What about the festival?
The €399 in-person children’s programme includes a guaranteed place at the year-end festival. Remote participants take part by selection; the remote offer does not include a private screening.
Do I need to know how to draw?
No. Drawings, words and conversation help communicate your intentions. Marlène then creates the film’s images.
Who makes the film?
The story and artistic choices come from the participant. Marlène handles production, editing and sound, using digital tools including artificial intelligence.
How do I book?
