Now in its 20th year, this is the ace of animation compilation shows, prized by fans, students, and industry professionals. It is curated by animation expert and producer Ron Diamond, who has scouted 38 eventual Oscar nominees and 11 winners among the many prize-winners culled from around the globe.

This year’s crop of 15 films from 6 nations includes:

THE GREEN BIRD, French gag-fest about a nervous bird’s frantic efforts to protect her unhatched offspring;

ONE SMALL STEP, the touching tale of a girl’s dream to become an astronaut;

GRANDS CANONS, a rapid-fire survey of the vast inanimate domain of tools, implements, instruments, appliances, and utensils;

FLOWER FOUND!, a provocative Dutch fable of barnyard injustice;

AGE OF SAIL, the sweeping saga of a misanthropic sailor who reluctantly rescues a teenaged girl;

MY MOON, a spectacularly visualized fantasy of a celestial love triangle;

WEEKENDS, the dreams and realities of an imaginative boy shuttled between his divorced parents.
In English and German with English subtitles.

Note: Some violent content. DCP digital.
