New Attendees, Nordic Strength Mark Adventurous 26th Edition of Europe’s Cartoon Movie


Stories of adventure and perseverance connect many of the 55 projects presented at European animation's leading co-pro forum.

Nearly finished titles such as Kristina Dufková’s stop-motion teen toon “Living Large” and the Yuletide adventure “SuperKlaus” will screen as sneak-peaks, while Italian auteur Alessandro Rak (“Cinderella the Cat”) will present his latest project, “The Little Prince of Shangri-La,” as a concept pitch. skewing coming-of-age drama with a supernatural twist, while filmmaker Alain Ughetto (“No Dogs or Italians Allowed”) will present “Rose and the Marmots” – a stop-motion fable about a 12-year-old and her blind grandpa living in an unforgiving mountain terrain. Directed by Philippe Rolland and produced by Nicolas de Rosanbo (Eddy Cinema), 2D biopic “The Line” traces the path of French aviation pioneer Jean Mermoz, as Denmark’s Rocket Road Pictures teams with Kuntz animation for the 17 th century exploration drama “The Great North Adventure.”
