Based on this, the six-minute animation “Cycling Wind” Kanoon production in 2019 is supposed to be screened on September 5th 2020 in the competition section of the Ukraine International Children Film Festival.  

This short animation is the story of a young wind who owns a bicycle. Without using much energy, he moves to any direction freely and enjoys the ride. Most importantly, it is the only bicycle that has such a device. This freedom and power gives his a chance to do whatever it likes.

DYTIATKO International Children Film Festival cooperates with organizations like CIFEJ (International Film Organization for Children and Adolescents).
