Le tableau / The Painting
Michèle Lemieux (NFB)
Canada, 2024,11'

The Painting explores the 1652 portrait of Queen Mariana of Austria by Velázquez. Michèle Lemieux demonstrates incredible mastery of the pinscreen, playing with shadow and light to evoke the tragic fate of Mariana, who was married to her uncle at the age of 14. Both painful and tender, this experimental work is a poem of a film: a meditation on the brutality of institutionalized incest and art’s power to capture the soul.

Peun-Ku-Larp / Rose Rash
Thanut Rujitanont (Graphy Animation)
Thailand, 2024, 10'20"

O Nobly-Born, your breathing is about to cease. Listen with full attention, without being distracted. O Nobly-Born, go forward, you have been in a swoon.

No
Pere Ginard /independent)
Spain, 2024, 2'48"

It's hard to say “no” and hard to say “yes”.

Percebes
Alexandra Ramires, Laura Gonçalves (BAP Animation Studio/IKKI Films)
Portugal, France, 2024, 11'30"

With the sea and the urban Algarve as a background, we follow a complete cycle of the life of a special shellfish called Percebes, goose barnacle. From their formation to the dish, in this journey, we cross different contexts that allow us to better understand this region and those who live there.

Circle
Yumi Joung (Match Cut)
South Korea, 2024, 7'

A girl draws a circle on the ground. Passers-by step into it, one by one. Soon the circle is full of people struggling to make room for each other. Once the girl returns and erases the circle, people start heading on their way.

Rosemary A.D. (After Dad)
Ethan Barrett (independent)
USA, 2022, 9'40"

Would my daughter be better off without me? The question swims around a father’s mind as he cradles his newborn.

Misérable miracle / Miserable Miracle
Ryo Orikasa (Miyu Productions/NFB/New Deer)
France, Canada, Japan, 2023, 8'10"

Inspired by the poems and drawings of Henri Michaux about his experience with mescaline, Miserable Miracle explores the limits of language and perception, creating connections between sound, meaning, shapes and movement.

Beautiful Men
Nicolas Keppens (Animal Tank/Miyu Productions/Ka-Ching Cartoons)
Belgium, France, Netherlands, 2023, 18'53"

Three balding brothers travel to Istanbul to get a hair transplant. Stuck with each other in a hotel far from home, their insecurities grow faster than their hair.
