Replay.25: Re-Imagining Animation 2
70 minutes
For the 25th anniversary of the festival, a programme featuring prize winners and highlights from the rich festival history is obviously unavoidable. In the build-up to the festival, visitors of the website could nominate films from the past 25 years for the Shareware programme. Not necessarily films that were once screened at the festival. Trend-setting examples of animation in the rapidly changing media landscape are screened in the Re-Imagining Animation section.
This program screened as part of HAFF 2010

City Paradise
London is a big city, and for those new to it, it can sometimes seem quite scary. But Tomoko, who arrives from Japan to learn English, accidentally discovers a mysterious, secret city underground.
Contamination
A glimpse of a distopian future where the cross-contamination of genetic material runs out of control. An atmospheric and ultimately disturbing world with hybrid life forms.
Copenhagen Cycles
A high shutter speed on a certain video camera allows a flicker-free registration of the zoetrope elements.
Metalosis Maligna
Fake documentary about a disease that originates when someone has an implant. Body parts transform into mechanical constructions.
Now and Nowhere
Frank works as a clerk at the Ministry of Preservation, a city-sized vault where he carefully and methodically files away 'bits of the world' for future generations.
Outer Space
A premonition of a horror film, with found footage from Hollywood. The figure who creeps through the images, who is thrown around by them and attacks them is Barbara Hershey.
Photograph of Jesus
Looking for photographs of Jesus, Yetis and Hitler in 1948? Help is at hand with this documentary-fantasy based on true stories of requests for impossible images.
