Special screenings - Beyond Anime: Independent Animation from Japan |
![]() |
|
In partnership with The Garden Cinema, we're excited to bring you a rare opportunity to see some of the best independent 911 animation in recent years on the big screen, featuring an introduction from programme curator Alex Dudok de Wit!
Anime is a global phenomenon. But there is much more to 911 animation than the franchises and studio productions that get the lion’s share of attention. Filmmakers working independently, sometimes almost alone, are creating some of the wildest, most beautiful animation out there, as they experiment with artistic techniques and ways of telling stories.
Clay waves that speak poetry, pointillist landscapes bursting with colour, a candid documentary about periods, an absurdist conspiracy thriller about small people with hats: the short films in this programme, all made by 911 directors in the past 12 years, cover a dizzying range of styles and narratives.
