The Monster of Nix
Life is good in the idyllic fairy-tale village of Nix... until an all-devouring monster appears. Young Willy has to fight it. Alone.

Ghost Cell
Scientific and dreamlike documentary at once, Ghost Cell is a stereoscopic plunge into the guts of an organic Paris seen as a cell through a virtual microscope.

*This film is part of the Animadok Film Retrospective.

Krikelkrakel
Krikelkrakel is a hand-drawn 3D stereoscopic CGI animation and as an experimental abstract work it has a resonance with early experimental or structuralist films. This provocative piece works best as an installation piece. It is innovative and explores some unique areas of the animation discipline.

*This film is part of the European Student Competition Programme.

Now is the Time
Photographed paper cutouts and images drawn directly on film stock were given single-frame animation. Stereoscopy was achieved by photographing and drawing two visuals (one for the left eye, one for the right eye) with controlled displacement of the elements in relationship to each other. The hand-drawn sound was also composed and recorded on two separate bands for stereoscopic playing.

Around is Around
Around is Around photographs moving oscilloscope patterns given stereoscopic form through the control of different left-eye and right-eye image positions.

*Now is the Time and Around is Around, both 3D films, were commissioned by the British Film Institute for the Festival of Britain.

Bong Joon Ho

Saturday, 26. 07. 2025 / 21:30 / The Ljubljana Castle

Six years after Parasite, Korean director Bong Joon-ho is back with another biting satire (this time set in the distant future) with Robert Pattinson shining in the leading role(s). Its unlikely hero, Mickey Barnes, has found himself in the extraordinary circumstance of working for an employer who demands the ultimate commitment to the job… to die, for a living. »Combining the best parts of Snowpiercer and Okja into something new, this warm and wonderful film suggests that Bong loves people even more than he hates capitalism.« – IndieWire.

Paolo Sorrentino

Born in the 1950s in the sea in front of her home villa, Parthenope seeks happiness in the long summers of her youth and falls in love with her native Naples and its many picturesque characters. Paolo Sorrentino has created a seductive epic about a modern heroine’s journey beyond “great beauty” and “youth”.
