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!

A dog gets abandoned on the side of the road. Attached to a street light, he stays alone until the day he meets a young astronaut wannabe and a professional cyclist who keeps on trying to beat her highest score.
