Animation enthusiasts can mark the dates of the 23rd edition of the Anifilm International Festival. Taking place in Liberec, Czech it opens from Tuesday, May 7 to Sunday 12, 2024.<\/p>\n

It is a unique cinematic experience to discover the best-animated films from different corners of the world. The festival will include diverse activities from film screenings, workshops, interviews, and more. This animation encounter is a chance for fans to prepare for more upcoming events. Such as the Karlovy Vary and the Summer Film School events coming in a few weeks.<\/p>\n

Highlights of the Festival<\/strong><\/p>\n

Visitors can look forward to a diverse program. The festival will explore the relationship between art and animation. It will feature unique films such as those using the artistry of water puppets. To add a twist to the festival this year is also a tribute section. The esteemed Czech screenwriter Ji\u0159\u00ed Kub\u00ed\u010dek will be honored for his work.<\/p>\n

As fun as Anifilm gets for moviegoers, there will be entertaining activities for everyone. Adults and children should expect a peek behind the scenes and a motion capture studio. There will also be hands-on animation workshops for different ages where those interested can plug in. Those seeking adult-oriented animation will enjoy their preference during midnight screenings.<\/p>\n

Additionally, participants will have the chance to meet global film director, Hugh Welchman. He is the director of the acclaimed thriller film, Loving Vincent (2017), and animated drama The Peasants (2023). Welchman will be leading the jury at the festival.<\/p>\n

Czech animation has a longstanding tradition of over 100 years. Czech animators are respected as some of the pioneers of film animation. With Czech animation dating back to the 1920s, it has grown into a successful industry over the years.<\/p>\n

One of the recent Czech-made films is \u201cThe Big Master\u201d. Featuring a puppet cartoon, it has received praise for its first part dubbed \u201cThe Little Master\u201d. Visitors can expect this and more excitement from the festival.<\/p>\n

For those seeking an alternative to screen options, there will be an exhibition at the North Bohemian Museum to explore. It is titled \u201cBeyond Animation: The Water Puppet in Czech Film.\u201d<\/p>\n

More details about the 2024 Anifilm International Festival can be found on the event\u2019s website.<\/p>\n
