Established in 1997, NYICFF is North America’s largest festival of film for children and teens and stands at the vanguard of a movement to define a new, more relevant and compelling film for kids. Each year NYICFF scours the globe to present a highly selective slate of the best animation, live action, documentary and experimental film from around the world, with screenings available for ages 3 to 18. Now a portion of the proceeds from ticket sales to these entertaining, intelligent, and culturally enriching films are donated to participating schools - including ours!
