Great Nature Moments for the Small Festival Jury in Braunschweig
The Green Screen Nature Film Festival brings the fascination of one of the most renowned nature film festivals in Europe directly to the city library of Braunschweig. Children aged 7 to 12 will not only experience powerful short films but will also become jury members themselves and decide on the winning film of the Palles Short Film Prize. The screenings are free and accessible without registration.

Festival Atmosphere Between Screen, Curiosity, and Excitement
Since 2007, Green Screen has stood for nature documentaries with ambition, international profile, and a clear focus on biodiversity, climate change, and the protection of nature. The festival is considered the most popular nature film festival in Europe and an important meeting point for the nature film industry in Germany. For Braunschweig, this means a compact, approachable festival experience with great educational value and real community dynamics.

Short Films with Jury Character Instead of Just Watching
At the center is the Palles Short Film Prize for children. Six submitted nature short films will be shown in participating libraries, after which the children will vote using a ballot. The winning film will receive a prize of 1,000 Euros at the 20th Green Screen Festival in Eckernförde. This mixture of participating in decision-making, wonder, and discussion is what makes the format appealing.
