Les Enfants du Cinéma has run since 1990, celebrating Cinema through stories where Children and adolescents are the protagonists. This associative festival in the Ardennes curates an international, diverse program that welcomes all audiences—young and old alike. Each film tells a story of growing up, discovering the world, facing challenges or finding joy; the festival believes that these narratives shape how viewers understand themselves and their place in the world.

The selections span animated features, dramas, documentaries and adventures calibrated for different age groups, from three-year-olds to teenagers. A film can touch your heart and stay with you forever, shaping your view of the world. That power—the lasting impression of meaningful cinema—drives the festival's curation and its commitment to reaching families across the region.
