2025 Theme: Games Children Play
Lights! Camera! Action!
A project of the Global Collaborative OnDesign, the Tiny Film Festival invites you to submit short films made by small people!
Join us on a magical journey into the world of childhood at the 2nd Biannual Tiny Film Festival, part of the World Forum on Early Care and Education in Malaysia and sponsored by the Global Collaborative OnDesign. Following the success of our first Tiny Film Festival in Vancouver (2024), which received over 30 heartfelt submissions from young filmmakers around the globe, we’re excited to announce this year’s theme: Games Children Play.
We invite short films (3 minutes or less)—filmed by children, with adult support—that highlight the joyful, playful spirit of children and capture the games children play in any setting: indoors or outdoors, at school, at home, in the forest, or anywhere play happens. Most importantly, we want to see the world through their eyes—through their emotions, insights, creativity, and cultural context.
