Snoring
When she is unable to stand her father's snoring any longer, a precocious 10-year-old girl makes a hilarious and genre-defying documentary about how the snoring affects her life.
Hope for the Future
In this documentary feature, we see firsthand how young people are learning about their environment and taking steps to protect the wildlife around them. Their conservation efforts are not only educational, but also inspiring!

Metamorphosis of the Old House (老屋变形记)
An old house in a magic forest is about to collapse. However, a cat named Luban living in the house refuses to move out. The old house and Luban have a standoff for days until both parties start to talk about their difficulties to each other.
How To
What begins as a simple task of nailing a picture frame to the wall becomes a Sisyphean exercise.
Adventure in Other Seas
Timy, a little fish from the North Sea, decides to run away from home and look for adventure in the Coral Sea. Once there, he has to adapt quickly if he wants to learn what really makes him happy.
Here Comes the Sun
A boy with an extreme aversion to sunlight battles more than just the sun while running an errand.

Based on a true story, three young friends navigate life in a sweet way after the loss of their friend.
Closed captions available
Avery
You can take the boy out of the country, but... Young Avery will never forget the special relationship he had with a tree back home.

Why should big-name film directors get all the credit for exploring what a film can do? These young filmmakers throw the rulebook out the window and prove that if you have an idea and a camera, you too can create an entirely unique work of art.


This program will also screen in person at NWFF on Saturday, Feb. 11 at 4:30pm! VIRTUAL, IN-PERSON, and HYBRID (virtual AND in-person) Festival Passes are available.


⚠️ Please note: NWFF patrons will be required to wear masks that cover both nose and mouth while in the building. Disposable masks are available at the door for those who need them. We are not currently checking vaccination cards. Read full COVID policies here.

Butterfly Playground is a whimsical take on the tragedy of losing a friend. Based on a true story, this short film explores the joys and sorrow of three children who had a friend who was a little different... and truly special.
