The last edition of the festival took place in 2017. However, [[Vizo]] still runs other programmes such as [[Mad About Film]].

{{Teaser|
The [[Eye on Film Festival|International Film Festival for Children and Youth Eye on Film ]] was launched in [[established::2015]] by [[Vizo]], an NGO intent on advancing the state of film culture amongst the Slovenian youth (and also adults). As its title implies, the festival presents a selection of feature, animated and short films appropriate for different audiences between the ages of 8 and 18 years. The name Eye on Film, is a translation of ''Film na oko'', an untranslatable word game.

The festival is inter-regional with screenings taking place at about a dozen cinemas of the [[Art Cinema Network]] around Slovenia, from Ljubljana and Maribor to Idrija and Škofja Loka. In Ljubljana, some of the (either current or former) partners include the [[Slovenian Cinematheque]], [[Cinema Bežigrad]] and also the [[Museum of Contemporary Art Metelkova (MSUM)]].

==Film programme==

The presented films are very diverse, ranging from archive pieces like Fellini's ''Amarcord'' (intended for the 15&ndash;18 years age group) to contemporary feature and animated films, different shorter pieces and works made by students of the [[Academy of Theatre, Radio, Film and Television (AGRFT)]]. 

In the festival's first edition, for example, the bigger part of the programme was of a European productions and only a small number of films &ndash; equalled by those from Asia and from South America &ndash; came from the United States. There were some 50 films, and about a half were shorts, culled from the programmes of the Anthropological Film Festival of Children and Youth in Ljubljana, Croatia's KIKI International Children's Film Festival and [[Animateka International Animated Film Festival]]. 

The best film in the competitive section is chosen by the audience aged 6 to 12 years. The winner in 2015 was the Italian-French co-production ''Il ragazzo invisibile'' by Gabriele Salvatores.

==Side programme==

Additional screenings in primary and high schools around Slovenia are presented together with various film creators and experts, who lead the accompanying lectures and discussion on films. There was also a course and a competition on film criticism for young writers, prepared in cooperation with [[Ekran, Magazine for Film and Television]] and [[Kino! Magazine for Cinema and Cinematic Issues]].
