Free screenings of 14 Vietnamese and Swedish children’s films in Hanoi
On the occasion of International Children’s Day on June 1, the Vietnam Film Institute, in collaboration with the Embassy of Sweden in Vietnam, will organise the Vietnam – Sweden Children’s Film Week.
The event will take place from June 1 to 5 at Ngoc Khanh Cinema on Hanoi’s Kim Ma street.
During the five-day programme, organisers will screen a total of 14 films, including three Swedish feature films and 11 Vietnamese animated films for children under the age of 16.
One of the highlights of the event will be book introductions and quiz games related to Pippi Longstocking. On the opening day, Kim Dong Publishing House – one of Vietnam’s best-known publishers specialising in children’s literature – will present Vietnamese editions of famous works by Astrid Lindgren that have been adapted into films, including four comic titles: Do You Know Pippi?, Pippi Goes Shopping, Pippi in the South Seas, and Pippi Saves Christmas.
According to organisers, the film week aims to introduce young audiences to oustanding films from both countries and to strengthen cultural exchange through cinema.
