Kirikou and the Wild Beasts features music by internationally renowned African artists Manu Dibango, Youssou N’Dour, and Rokia Traore. Other highlights include the third installment of The Wild Soccer Bunch, a popular series from Germany; Little Heroes, one of the first feature films for children made in Israel; and the animated short film The Danish Poet, nominated for the 2007 Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film.

Filmmakers will be attending many of the screenings for Q&A’s. Mo Willems, author and illustrator of the semi- autobiographical Knuffle Bunny, based on his 2005 Caldecott Honor book, will be on hand to answer questions at the 10am screening on Saturday.

It was a kingdom ruled by the great king Arthur who was a virtuous and wise monarch. His reign was presented as idyllic and he was considered the model ruler. Many have used the imagery of Arthur’s Camelot to describe prosperous times in history, from the JFK presidency to the “Golden Age of Television.” For young children, the world is shaped by much smaller things than presidents or politics and, for myself; the world existed not only in my home or at school, but in the wonderfully imaginary places created in cartoons.
