Our second programme of family shorts (for slightly older children) takes us on a journey through Swiss shopping malls, the Canadian countryside, an American high school, and a Dutch aquarium. Full of fun, this programme boasts arguably the funniest short to feature in this year’s festival, a two-minuter about an irate octopus who is desperate to have his tank cleaned. Also featuring is Whatever Tree - a thoroughly entertaining mixed media short outlining the consequences of getting a little too obsessed with smart devices, and Ennui, following a group of people who go slightly doolally when they get caught up in the monotony of the everyday. A joyous selection that highlights an array of animation techniques and approaches.
All of these films are eligible for the Colour Box Audience Award so please do vote for your favourite!
Total running time: 60 mins
Suitable for 6+ year olds
An animated children's film about tolerance towards strangers. The proverbial "black sheep" is mobbed out of the herd, but only the courageous outsider can save the herd from great disaster.
