About indiekidfilms

Our kids color outside the lines.

We are film professionals, parents, and art fanatics. Eager to share the diverse, often amusing and highly entertaining world of independent cinema with our kids, we created indiekid films. We honor the artistic excellence of our movies by producing DVDs of the highest possible technical quality.

Long appreciated abroad, international children’s film festivals are gaining popularity in the U.S. Until recently, most kids and families haven’t had great local festivals or access to these premiere events. Even if one is fortunate to catch movies at a festival it’s a one time experience, with next year’s fest featuring a new line up of outstanding cinema.

Most foreign films, or works without a product tie-in or recognized actor, are retired to a shelf at the end of a festival season without distribution in the U.S. At indiekid, we intend to change that.

We actively seek exceptional films and film makers who have missed their distribution window. In bringing the festival experience home, we open doors to other cultures, reflect on art and engage in a cinematic dialogue with our families.

Our films are award recipients from world renowned festivals including Cannes, Berlin, Ottawa, Athens, Amsterdam, Seoul and Chicago. We present gorgeous film classics from the golden age of Eastern European puppet cinema to contemporary animation from Korea and Japan and poignant coming of age stories from emerging nations forged in moments of political and social change.

These are the movies film lovers of all ages have been waiting for.
