A nature film festival that makes children jury members
At the GREEN SCREEN Nature Film Festival Eckernförde in the city library of Braunschweig, the focus is on the shared film experience: children between 7 and 12 years old will watch a selection of six short films and decide for themselves the winner of the Palles Short Film Award. The screenings are free of charge and do not require registration.

Festival atmosphere with participation factor
This format brings festival organization, enthusiasm for film, and a sense of community directly into the library. Instead of a large main stage, there is concentrated attention, exciting nature images, and the special moment when the young visitors cast their votes. The winning film will later be awarded at the 20th GREEN SCREEN Festival.

An established festival with a clear signature
According to the festival, GREEN SCREEN is considered the most popular festival for nature documentaries in Europe and an important industry meeting point. The festival has been held annually in Eckernförde since 2007, presenting international nature films and awarding prizes in 16 competition categories. For 2026, over 200 filmmakers and producers are expected from September 9 to 13. ([greenscreen-festival.de](https://www.greenscreen-festival.de/?utm_source=openai))
Why a visit is worthwhile
Here, nature education meets the cinema experience, and that is precisely what creates the special appeal: young film fans experience how images of animals, landscapes, and biodiversity become genuine debates. The festival stands for strong stories, environmental awareness, and a sense of community that extends far beyond the individual screening date.
