Meet the winners of the 17th edition of the Animator International Animated Film Festival!
No fewer than six jury panels, including the largest - the audience - selected the films and series that, in their opinion, deserve recognition. This year, an unprecedented thing happened at the Animator Festival. For the first time in history, the Grand Prix in the International Short Film Competition and the Grand Prize in the Polish Competition were won by the same person - Izabela Plucinska for the films "Joko" and "Outside."
Also for the first time on the podium was a film that received the same place in the International Short Film Competition and the Polish Competition. This picture is the short film "Zima / Winter", directed by Tomek Popakul and Kasumi Ozeki.
