Taiwan International Children’s Film Festival (TICFF) is a biennial event founded by Taiwan Public Television Service (PTS) in 2004, and the first film and television festival in Asia dedicated entirely to children aged 4-12.

The 11th edition of TICFF is scheduled for April 2024 in Taipei. We are calling for entries with a cash prize of US$28,000 in total for extraordinary productions of dramas, animations, documentaries, and TV/Web series.

Submissions to the competition will also be considered as candidates for our official selection. As the oldest and biggest children’s film festival in Taiwan, TICFF has established a reputation in film selection. Many films screened in TICFF later got invited by other children’s festivals in Taiwan, or approached by Taiwanese distributors and educators. So this could be a great opportunity for your films to get exposure in Taiwan!
