Logorama [Best Animation Short]
In a fascinating and original comment on today’s mass consumerism, French Directors H5 bring us spectacular car chases, an intense hostage crisis and wild animals on the rampage through a city made up of all too familiar logos. France/ H5/ 16min.
French Roast
In a fancy Parisian Café, an uptight businessman is about to pay the bill when he discovers that he has lost his wallet. He decides to stall by ordering more coffee - unusual events (and very shot nerves) ensue. France/ O. Joubert/ 8min.
Granny O’Grimm’s Sleeping Beauty
Granny O’Grimm, a seemingly sweet old lady, loses the plot as she tells her version of ‘Sleeping Beauty’ to her terrified granddaughter. A very humorous treatment of familiar themes of family, old age and resentment. Ireland/ Nicky Phelan/ 6min.
The Lady and the Reaper
A sweet old lady lives alone on her farm, waiting for death so that she may see her beloved husband once more. Finally Death arrives to carry her into his domain, but will she make it, or will someone get in the way? Spain/ Javier Recio Garcia/ 8min.
A Matter of Loaf and Death
Nick Park brings us another slice of Great Britain’s great tradition in the latest adventure of Wallace and Gromit. With a new bread baking business in tow, Wallace and Gromit enjoy being the ‘Toast of the Town’. However, Gromit soon realises his master’s life is in jeopardy and turns sleuth to solve the escalating murder mystery - in what quickly becomes ‘A Matter of Loaf and Death’. UK/ Nick Park/ 30min.
