Animation Special: Funny Nightmares
Date: May 18th, 2008, 8 p.m. + 11 p.m. (during Animation Night)
Location: Top Kino (Info)
Tickets: 8 Euro (Animation Night)
Transformations in every sense of the word are the main focus of this (black) humorous animation special in which we will encounter such famous names as the US star Bill Plympton or the pop giants Björk and Damon Albarn. Technically varying from classic cartoons to 3D-animations, this programme is all about commonplace frenzy, partly echoing the genres of Film Noir and Horror. (61 min)
