  • About
  • Submission Info

Punto y Raya JUNIOR is an international festival devoted to Abstract Animation & Film created BY CHILDREN under 13 years old. The younger brother of Punto y Raya Festival -benchmark event for Abstract Art in Motion- keeps developing its community and getting its ow recognition as a pioneering event for children’s artistic experimentation.

Now in its third edition, PyR Junior invites young artists to create Abstract (non-representational) short films exploring the beauty and creative possibilities of Form, Colour, Motion and Sound in their purest state. No representation: only Dots & Lines! The festival’s mission is to recapture the spirit of Cinéma Pure and Absolute Film formulated by the European avant-garde in the 1920s, consolidating this unique art form at the intersection of Fine Arts and Media.

If you are an educator or parent and would like your children to participate, we encourage you to carry out activities to produce short films together. We have devised a few GUIDELINES for animation and video Workshops, in case you need some tips. And in our PyRTV JUNIOR platform you will also find hundreds of films created by children as well as professionals using the most diverse techniques.
