The Chulpicine Film Festival for Children and Youth is an itinerant film festival that began in 2002 in Quito, Ecuador, focusing on bringing educational and entertaining audiovisual content to communities with limited cultural activities. It became a cultural and educational non-profit foundation in June 2004. The festival aims to democratize culture, promote the active participation of children and adolescents, and encourage critical reflection on audiovisual material by involving them in children's and youth juries. It offers free access to its activities, screening national and international productions outside commercial circuits to diverse audiences across Ecuador's coast, sierra, and Amazon regions, including special screenings for disabled children.
