Marked in green on the schedule: Screenings specifically tailored for young audiences, with the recommended minimum age indicated.

The rest of the program is generally intended for a “mature” audience. Generally for ages 14 and up, unless otherwise noted: some screenings include a content warning (!) while others are family-friendly for ages 10 and up (*)

For audience members who would like details on sensitive topics featured in the films, you can now refer to the Trigger Warning.
