Ana Morphose | Joao Rodrigues
2023 - Short Film - 10 minutes - Animation
A young girl reads herself to sleep. As she drifts off, she is caught up in a phantasmagoria of words, pages and a mad collision of ideas on paper. The dreamlike adventure of a child was set free by her imagination.

Gina Kamentsky's Pinocchio in 70MM | Gina Kamentsky
2024 - Short Film - 3 minutes - United States - Animation

What is it about children that when they reach a certain age, they hate the idea of kissing? What if, at a summer campsite, they could feel each other’s desire for kisses? What a horror! The winner of the Prix des enfants at the Premiers Plans Festival, the Prix primaire at the Regard Festival and the Prix Benshi at the Annecy Festival.

The Swineherd | Magnus Igland MØLLER and Peter Smith
2022 - Short Film - 7 minutes - Denmark - Animation
Things are going wild in the neighbouring kingdom. A princess is bored and escapes to find musical pigs guarded by a dancing swineherd. A fairy tale (Hans Christian Andersen's The Swineherd) that's delightfully offbeat and made just for laughs.

Gilbert | Arturo Lacal, Alex Salu and Jordi Jiménez
2024 - Short Film - 13 minutes - Spain - Animation
Three talented directors with different animation techniques and experience co-direct their first film together. Two inhabitants of an archipelago, lost in the middle of the ocean, coexist and tolerate each other from a distance. But one day, one of them receives a parcel addressed to the other and decides to keep it. The routine of their daily lives is about to be turned upside down… A magnificent study of the torment of guilt, in which the eye dispenses with dialogue in order to create empathy.

Weeds | Pola Kazak
2024 - Short Film - 14 minutes - Czech Republic - Animation
In a perfect garden with flowers as beautiful as they are identical, a woman is confronted with the arrival of weeds – flowers, yes, but ones that sting. What can she do? A magnificent animated tableau on the subject of immigration explained to children and adults alike. In competition at the CinéFondation (Cannes 2024).

Crème à glace | Rachel Samson
2024 - Short Film - 9 minutes - Canada - Animation
It's holiday time, a summer that's too hot and a friendship that's fading. It's time for a last ice cream between two friends who, like the world around them, are melting too quickly. A superb formal exercise in the form of a sensitive reflection on the moment when we change when we grow up and time turns upside down around us. Official selection of TIFF 2024.
