From the 2017 IFI Family Festival programme, we have chosen a selection of favourite European short films to start 2018 with a smile. Coming from Ireland, Russia, the Netherlands, Norway and the UK, this collection includes live-action, drawn, and stop-motion animation.

See the girl who befriends a wolf in Russian film, Moroshka, watch Luna from Ireland who likes to draw dots with the stars, or Daithí who wants to impress classmate Jessica with some jewellery.
