Cinemini: Time Machine Cinemini: Časovni stroj

razno / various / 2020 / 26 min / No dialogue / 3+

A cinema is a magical time machine – let’s quickly jump on it. The train takes us to the time of cinema’s birth and drops us off in a burlesque with an impish wheel. We curiously observe our parents’ games and make friends with a little alien. Quickly, come play with us, for we’re in a rush.

A programme of carefully selected short films from European film archives with guided conversations. The Cinemini European project brings a playful film programme, ranging from tiny stories from the time of our grandparents to interesting films by contemporary artists.
