About AICFF

 What is AICFF

Ahmedabad International Children film festival is a rooted idea to empower and be heard for the talent, creativity and culture they choose across the globe, as for the generation to voice their belief and change in the society. The Ahmedabad International Children Film Festival (AICFF) is a flagship event of Paytamasha, which stands as a celebration of the minds that shape the trajectory of our society in the present day and hold the keys to our collective future. In a world where children are not merely spectators, but protagonists in their own right, this festival recognizes unique perspectives, voices, and creative expressions. AICFF provides a platform for everyone to tell stories that resonate with and across the world, reflecting not only their dreams and aspirations, but also the values, cultures, and mindsets that define our shared human experience.

Our Vision

We believe that AICFF is a narration of every individual’s core memory from childhood. Wherein these children’s centric films will play a vital role to communicate resilience, innocence, curiosity, and Selfless-love to us who tend to forget and celebrate the actual moments of life. AICFF plays a role to bridge the gap between these story-tellers and creative individuals.

Our Mission

By pursuing this mission, we endeavor to make a positive impact on the film enthusiasts, nurturing the creators with compassion and culture. Together, we want to embark on a journey of imagination, discovery, and joy at the AICFF.
