Children in Kerala are fortunate to have an international festival of well-known children’s films, especially in an age when few films that inspire young minds are being made here and at the national level, actor Nedumudi Venu has said. In his childhood days, such events were something children could scarcely dream of, Venu recalled, inaugurating the reception committee office of the second International Children’s Film Festival of Kerala (ICFFK), being organised by the Kerala State Council for Child Welfare.
