Zoom: Family Film Festival 2010
<em>Zoom</em>brings an assortment of entertaining and acclaimed films to the Wex each year. This time the festival features the return of Jim Henson's Muppets and new behind-the-scenes moments from<em>Sesame Street</em>, short films from around the globe, animation galore, and a can’t-miss Charlie Chaplin classic for the whole family. Families can also enjoy hands-on activities, our free Saturday morning breakfast and pajama party, and a Saturday afternoon ice cream social.
This spooky stop-motion animation from the Czech Republic is an atmospheric fairytale—four parts Toy Story and one part David Lynch.
The story tells about a group of abandoned toys that stage an ambitious rescue of their kidnapped friend. The diabolically inventive film won the Grand Prize at the 2010 New York International Children’s Film Festival. In Czech with English subtitles. (75 mins., video)
The Zoom: Family Film Festival for 2010 was organized by Chris Stults, Wexner Center assistant curator of film/video, and Jean Pitman, educator for youth programs.
Please Note: Some scenes of danger in this film may frighten younger viewers. The age recommendation listed above is very general. If you would like to discuss the specifics of any film before viewing it with your child, please call Jean Pitman at (614) 292-4614.
