EUNIC Highlights in European Animation 2

EUNIC and KLIK! have banded together to bring you an overview of the wonderful, versatile, and exciting animated shorts Europe has to offer, with each participating country represented by an animated short that’s either a stone-cold classic or a brand-new marvel. You‘ll see older films that had an impact on the country‘s political history, films that placed their country’s animation on the map professionally, recent films with immense success stories, and films that showcase the very best a country’s culture has to offer. From 1960s Czech stop-motion animation to modern-day Israeli CGI (computer-generated imagery), this program has it all! This is part two of the EUNIC diptych.

This program screened as part of KLIK! Amsterdam Animation Festival 2013
