Main Competition Programme IV
Best new animated shorts from Central and Eastern Europe that are in the running for the ;DSAF (Slovene Animated Film Association) Audience Award and Jury Grand Prix.
A nurse, a Nazi and a fish: this is a tale that started out as a rumour in WWII and ended up in the international tabloids in 2014. It portrays a young Czech woman who, in the face of Nazi occupation, trumps the invaders with her unique form of resistance. Her story is given an animated retelling that explores the collision of history, truth and myth-making.
Leaves are carried up and down by the wind. Each paints a line of its own as it becomes part of something bigger.
The early 20th century London. Famous detective Gloria Scott and her faithful companion Mary Lambert are spending a quiet evening in their office. Then, an unknown murderer kills professor Jansen at their doorstep. A new adventure awaits them.
Woman-Doe works as a professional exhibit at the museum, hanging from a wall as a dead animal alongside the rest of the trophies of the same kind. The life she lives is a definition of a routine – until one morning, when small horns appear on her head. She can't fit her head through the hole in the wall at the museum. She will be punished, so her only way out is freedom.
The salmon want to reproduce. While the salmon men are swimming upstream in a testosterone-driven race, the women at the source of the river indulge themselves in a fertility dance. But the roles aren’t set as clearly as the men expect.
A drama based on a group of men seated at a table, moving to the rhythm of modern music for a string quartet, or: the Last Supper of Jesus and the Twelve Apostles.
