With
its rich metaphorical language, animation can visualize that which is
invisible to the human eye. When there’s no footage of an actual event
or only memories, turning to animation opens a door for the expression
of a story. The films in this program tell real life stories, using
materials with a direct relation to a historical reality, like the audio
recording of an interview.
This program screened as part of KLIK Amsterdam Animation Festival 2018
