Cinekid Festival celebrates 50th birthday of Thunderbirds

On Friday the 23rd of October Dutch festival Cinekid celebrates Thunderbirds 50th Anniversary! Grandparents, parents and children can enjoy the very first episodes of the legendary sci-fi series on the big screen. Thunderbirds 50 years! is part of Animation Day, which offers a special programme of new and old animation productions for the youth.

“What could be a better opportunity for (grand)parents to show their (grand)kids which series they grew up with? They probably never saw Thunderbirds on the big screen themselves!” – Erik Tijman, Senior Producer Film

Cinekid is a film, television and new media festival for children, which takes place every autumn in Amsterdam, during the school holidays. The ten day’s event covers all aspects of the media industry for young audiences and offers workshops and masterclasses as well as high-quality media. Every year more than 50.000 children are given the opportunity to visit over 500 media productions selected by the festival: feature films, children’s documentaries, short films, animations, television series and single productions, cross media productions, interactive installations and set-ups as well as workshops.
