Morning
Vojtěch Domlátil (self-produced)
Czech Republic, 2019, 3'33"

Morning. Coffee. Breakfast. Shower. And then? A trip outside? Or a trip inside? A breathing meditation wrapped in the disguise of a feather-light experimental drawing animation.

Portrait En Pied De Suzanne / Portrait of Suzanne
Izabela Plucińska (Clay Traces/Films de Force Majeure/The Las Sztuki Foundation)
Germany, France, Poland, 2019, 14'55"

In a small hotel, a man tries to stop his hunger for love by eating excessively. Unexpectedly, his left foot transforms into his lost lover, Suzanne. Still, this is just the beginning of a surreal story, made of plasticine, about loneliness, jealousy and love.

Radiovizija – Govori Mihovil Logar / Radiovision – Mihovil Logar Speaking
Miloš Tomić (Platforma)

Estonia, Mexico, Lithuania, 2019, 8'35"

Passage
Anja Sidler (Schattenkabinett)
Switzerland, 2019, 6'40"

Two very different people set off on an adventure and leave their familiar environment behind. Unexpectedly, their paths cross. A film about yearning for change and the value of coincidence in a society shaped by individual development and the pressure to achieve.

Liliana
Milanka Fabjančič (Zvviks)
Slovenia, 2019, 6'53"

Young Liliana is the epitome of modesty, dedication, and hard work. These facets are even more pronounced because of her desire to achieve her goal. The tale lies beyond time and space, nostalgically reminding us of the past.

Kosmonaut / Cosmonaut
Kaspar Jancis (Eesti Joonisfilm)
Estonia, 2019, 11'37"

A hero remains a hero. The story of a senior soviet spaceman.

Lidérc úr / Mr. Mare
Luca Tóth (Boddah/Sacrebleu Productions)
Hungary, France, 2019, 19'33"

Looking at an x-ray image, a young handsome man is horrified to learn that the weird, tumour-like lump on his chest is the top of a tiny plump man’s head. Nested in his body, he is waiting to be born… Mr. Mare is a surreal animated chamber play, set in a ‘haunted’ claustrophobic space, in which we witness the dynamics of unrequited love as we follow the relationship of an oddly co-dependent pair.
