What is SCHLiNGEL?

SCHLiNGEL is a film festival.
Film festivals are events where very special films are shown.
We show more than 250 films from almost every country in the world.
They are made for children and young people, but everyone else can also watch the films.
The best get a prize. Juries decide on the winners.
The festival takes place every autumn in Chemnitz. It lasts 1 week.
Most of the screenings are in the CineStar in the Galerie Roter Turm.
The people who made the films are also there. They talk about their work. They come from everywhere. For example from Canada, Great Britain, Italy or New Zealand.
