Park Your Cinema Kids: The Good Dinosaur (2015) - Εικόνα

In this summer’s Park Your Cinema Kids, we invite our young film buffs and their families to discover incredible heroes in worlds that defy the imagination, to embrace tales based on compassion, and to build bridges that abolish differences and create a universe of love and trust.

In all of these stories, the heroes break away from the safety of their world (like Elsa and Anna, who seek the truth beyond Arendelle), choose their unexpected families (like Paddington, the lovable bear, in London), meet the friends with whom they’ll share unforgettable adventures (like the boy who forges an unbreakable bond with the Iron Giant), choose kindness over prejudice (like Shaun the Sheep, when he comes across an alien weed) and, of course, the adventure that makes all of this possible (like the revelation of the Giant Pear). 

Every day, kids are faced with the reminder that the world around us is not black and white: it is multicolored, multifaceted, complex, like these wonderful films chosen by the Athens International Children’s Film Festival, which make up the most exciting summer cinema season at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center.

The Good Dinosaur (2015):

What would happen if, millions of years ago, the asteroid that changed life on Earth forever altered its course and missed the planet, allowing the giant dinosaurs to carry on living? That is a question only Pixar could answer, let alone turn into a film. The groundbreaking animation studio tells yet another thrilling and controversial coming-of-age story with riveting special effects, unforgettable characters and good doses of both laughter and tears. In a world where dinosaurs aren’t extinct, a young Apatosaurus named Arlo strikes up a friendship with Spot, a young caveboy. Together, they will cross a hostile and mysterious world. Arlo will learn to face his fears, as he finds out how much he is capable of.
