Over 100 chil­dren and adults have seen se­lec­tions of the films from the 2011 Trav­el­ling Caribbean Film Show­case (TCFS) and de­scribed them as "def­i­nite­ly en­ter­tain­ing" and "in­for­ma­tive".Or­gan­i­sa­tions, NGO's, Com­mu­ni­ty Based Or­gan­i­sa­tions and oth­er 'Com­mu­ni­ty Groups' who were seek­ing op­tions for en­ter­tain­ing and ed­u­ca­tion­al ac­tiv­i­ties for their mem­bers for the month of Au­gust were in­vit­ed by the Trinidad and To­ba­go Film Com­pa­ny (TTFC) to host screen­ings of the lo­cal and re­gion­al films.

The TCFS is a pro­gramme ini­ti­at­ed by Mues­tra Itin­er­ante de Cine del Caribe in Cu­ba with the sup­port of UN­ESCO, in which films pro­duced by Caribbean and Latin Amer­i­can film-mak­ers are se­lect­ed for screen­ing in sev­er­al Caribbean coun­tries. In 2011, there are 37 films in the Show­case, many of which are suit­able for chil­dren and adults. One (1) an­i­ma­tion – 'Pu­ber­ty – Javier Se­cret' deals with the is­sue of grow­ing up and the un­cer­tain­ty of the changes to one's body while the docu-dra­ma 'Chu­randy' fo­cus­es on an ath­lete's com­mit­ment and pride for his home­land.

The films orig­i­nate from coun­tries in­clud­ing Be­lize, Co­lum­bia, Cos­ta Ri­ca, Venezuela, Cu­ra­cao, Haiti, Do­mini­can Re­pub­lic and Cu­ba to name a few and the Eng­lish speak­ing re­gion is al­so rep­re­sent­ed with films from Ja­maica, Ba­hamas, Cay­man Is­lands and Trinidad and To­ba­go!
