Short and Student films competitions include classics of world animation

Our short films competition includes in total 34 films offering the best of the world of animation from last year. Our selection boasts such names as Adam Elliot, Igor Kovalyov, Marcell Jankovics, Georges Schwizgebel, the renowned French duo Alain Gagnol & Jean-Loup Felicioli, Priit Tender or Kaspar Jancis. The selection will also screen two films from the famous Canadian agency National Film Board of Canada. Also Czech authors have been selected to compete – Sunrise by Vít Pancíř will have its world premiere in Třeboň and the competition will also include Lucie Sunková’s The Tree, made with a very demanding paint-on-glass technique. Another three blocks are formed by student films which serve as a proof that schools all around the world are breeding grounds for talents producing varied and inventive films so professional that they could to some extent compete with our short films competition entries.
