Lahore International Children's Film Festival (LICFF) invites under 18 young people to participate in the 3rd LICFF Young Filmmakers Competition. Through this competition, we aim to give students, young and teens to showcase the talent of filmmaking in Lahore International Children’s Film Festival and earn recognition for them while representing their schools.

Films are a great source of entertainment and education especially for children and youth. There are immense benefits in experiencing a good film, it introduces us to the world we are living in, exposes us to cultural diversity and promote imagination and critical thinking.

The process of filmmaking on the other hand also offers great learning opportunities to children. Filmmaking being a great blend of various art forms, which also addresses science and sports, provide children multi-dimensional benefits. They polish soft-skills such as leadership, collaboration, articulation and artistic development in the process.

Submission Deadline: 30th September 2016
Prizes: 3 cash prizes of PKR 5,000 each for 3 best films
