Hong Kong’s FilMart Gets Animated as More Toons Join Project Market Lineup
Seven animated projects will pitch at the Hong Kong Market, six in a dedicated animation showcase and a seventh as part of an Indonesia spotlight.
Produced by Da Peng and Lu Xiaowei, “Light Pillar” is a story set in a nearly deserted film studio that mixes live action and animated sequences. Keeping up with a resurgent dialogue-free trend in top animation — think Oscar-winner “Flow” and nominee “Robot Dreams” — action-packed comedy “A Mighty Adventure” follows three insects — a grasshopper, spider and butterfly — as they navigate a vast concrete jungle. Produced by Bejon K Vinod, “The Tale of the Holy Beast” is a heart-wrenching story of a young elephant calf who loses his herd to poachers and is subsequently sold to various owners throughout his life.
