20th Cairo International Film Festival for Children

If you visit the Cairo Opera in the coming days you will find its audience quite different (I was about to add, and quite noisier, ... but recalling some concerts I attended I am not quite sure :-)) from the usual one.

In a commendable initiative, the Ministry of Culture opens the doors of its theatres to the children for the 20th edition of the Cairo International Film Festival for Children starting tomorrow Thursday, March 4 2010 at 8:00 PM in the Main Hall of the Cairo Opera House and running until Thursday, March 11.
The Festival, featuring movies from all over the world, is the one and only of its kind in the Middle East and is establishing for itself a worldwide reputation.
