MIAF 2024 - International Competition Program #1 – REPEAT

The 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.

The program opens with the stunningly original new film “Way Better” by Skirmanta Jakaite, a Lithuanian master animator with an awe-inspiring capacity to stretch the expressive capacities of animation to breaking point and beyond. Coincidentally the program also finishes with a Lithuanian film; the beautifully realised “Memories In The Clouds” by Kristina and Albert Laine, a tour-de-force pointing the way in which AI might be taking auteur animation.

This session is classified: Unclassified (M) Mature, not recommended for viewers under 15 years.
