Family Films at HIFF31

At HIFF, there is truly something for everyone!

This year, we have three film programs suitable for all ages, and we are excited to share them with film fans young and old. Bring the little ones in your life and cement an early love of cinema…


Take your family on a journey through the beloved world of children’s picture books, led by three contemporary stars of the new ”golden age” of kids’ lit, including our special guest, illustrator Christian Robinson (Last Stop on Market Street)!

In the bright and bustling world of 1980s New York City, a lonely dog living in Manhattan builds himself a robot as a companion. This family-friendly adventure uses vivid, playful animation to tell a deeply human story about the meaning of friendship.
