About the Event
For a child, everything is possible. And when a child feels that they cannot do something, say, fly in the sky like a bird or breathe under water like a fish, they wonder why. No answer can curb their curiosity, which will only increase tremendously.
It is perhaps when a child starts accepting the answers they are given that they slowly turn into an adult. An adult has all the answers, but no questions worth asking because he has run out of them. A child seeks endless answers to endless questions.
At the Curiosity Carnival we will be screening 10 films that we hope our young audience will like. These films give no answers but are filled with questions, because in their worlds, everything is possible.
