Short film series “On the catwalk”

Short films for everyone aging from 5 and more in the unique setting of Train World.

In collaboration with Filem’On and as part of the Filem’On festival, Train World will once again be holding an exciting evening of films consisting of seven short animated films that the whole family will enjoy.

Train World is exploring the world of fashion, and Filem’On is jumping on the bandwagon. With a curated selection of animated films covering all manner of aspects of fashion and clothing, from the hijab to the T-shirt, from floral prints to woollen mittens. An original series of animated films without words, curated by Filem’On- the International Film Festival for Young Audiences. For all ages.

The short films will be shown in the old ticket hall of the Schaerbeek railway station (the first part of Train World). The films are very accessible for all.
