How far will you go and what will you do in order to achieve your dreams? Disrupting The Narrative: When Worlds Collide takes viewers on unexpected journeys across London, Libya, South Africa and beyond into personal histories and deep into emotional landscapes of the heart. Documentary and avant garde experiments collide with innovative C.G. stop motion and hand drawn animation techniques to explore coming of age stories about people, places, gentrification, migration and the beauty of bodies in motion. The programme exposes secret desires, hidden motives, envy and birth rights beneath layers of blood, collage, drawings, paintings and pixels in the form of fabricated fictions, fables of sisterhood, joy, atrocity and cannibalism. Personal and political narratives are investigated beneath the microscopic eye of 10 animation directors with urgent tales to tell through metaphors and visual poems that bring ideas to life and add meaning to human stories in fresh ways.
Disrupting the Narrative: When Worlds Collide was co-curated with Osbert Parker – BAFTA and Emmy nominated Director and Ambassador for FLAMIN at Film London.
