The International Young Audience Film Festival Ale Kino! has been founded for young and very young people who treat the cinema as a journey into the unknown, a challenge and a thrilling adventure. It shows films which avoid cultural and commercial clichés.

The mission of the Festival is, first of all, enabling young audience to see films like this and promoting artistic cinema for children and young people.
