SUMMARY:Black & White Showcase [2024]
DESCRIPTION:\nTICKETS\n\n\n\nThe International Competition Programs are the backbone of the entire MIAF mission. Drawn from more than 2,000 submissions they showcase the best, most imaginative animating talent on the planet in a series of programs in which the only rule is diversity.\n\n\n\nSomehow, sometimes less is more. Sometimes deploying a full colour palette to create an image conspires to make that whole something less than the sum of its parts. Perhaps the coloured ‘completeness’ of the imagery squeezes out our ability (or will) to creatively interpret what we are watching for ourselves. Perhaps the richness or density of all of that colour condensed into a fixed frame and replayed in a single space that demands our focused attention simply overwhelms our other creative interpretive faculties. Many animators address these challenges by deploying masterfully conceived and elegantly designed black and white animation and this program brings a collection of the very best of these films to the big screen.\n\n\n\nAnabasis – Jelizaveta Averko\n\n\n\nAnabasisJelizaveta AverkoEstonia, 3’18, 2022A man with no plan is always going to have an interesting journey when he travels towards the unknown.\n\n\n\nDarkness Falling – Marcin Nowrotek\n\n\n\nDarkness FallingMarcin NowrotekPoland, 4’14, 2023A darkly elegant music video about the momentum of our violent impulses and their inevitable repercussions.\n\n\n\n▲ (ALT 30) – Mathis Hernoe, Alexandre Clermont, Thomas Louchet\n\n\n\n▲ (ALT 30)Mathis Hernoë, Alexandre Clermont, Thomas LouchetFrance, 6’30, 2023Even in an abstract universe, human nature inevitably turns towards instituting a creative revolution – and that’s where animation comes in mighty handy.\n\n\n\nMobius – Yancang Li\n\n\n\nMobiusYancang LiTaiwan, 8’50, 2023Legend would have it that Mobius stands as the quintessential, forever fascinating endless loop.
