In its 48th edition, the Zlín International Film Festival for Children and Youth brings a number of novelties. The major one rests with moving to brand new screening venues located in the Golden Apple Cinema – a multiplex and a shopping precinct located in the very centre of Zlín. The precinct’s name refers to the original name of Zlín as well as to the new look of the spectator price (inspired by an apple slice), designed by Daniel Piršč.
The festival itself now has eight days. Its constant growth is well represented in the rising number of participants and films. For this year, organizers expect more than 400 films and around 60,000 spectators to turn up. They are going to witness the launching of a new section focused more on university students who have comprised larger and larger share of festival spectators ever since Zlín became a vibrant university town. In the previous years, only films for youth were able to catch the more mature part of festival goers. Now, everybody interested in controversial topics, themes of boundary crossing and transition between youth and adulthood will certainly find their favourites in the new section of Night Horizons.
