Cinemini | Minuscule

During Taartrovers Cinemini we show beautiful, sweet, exciting, abstract, narrative and sometimes also challenging short films, especially for toddlers and preschoolers. Afterwards, the visitors play together in a light landscape, consisting of various installations with which children playfully discover how light can create stories. They investigate form, projection, light, shadow, stories, movement and colour. How do shadows arise? Where do images come from, how do shapes become larger or smaller and how do shapes disappear into nothingness? And what stories can they see in the shapes? For adults, shadow is something that is self-evident, for children it is perhaps a magician who turns the adults into tall giants.

Meet the insect family
The surprising perspective, the beautiful sound effects and the beautiful animation style make the series a hit in France. Special: the directors have alternated the animations with recordings of documentaries, which brings nature even closer.

In Minuscule, the animals themselves tell the story. Insects seem tiny, but when you see the world through their eyes, that changes completely. Ants, spiders, crane flies and ladybirds suddenly have human characteristics and get involved in funny everyday situations. Go on an adventure with the insects through meadow landscapes full of grass and flowers!
