Tireless Czech experimenter Vojtěch Domlátil, who focuses on nature and movement through the landscape, presents this black and white (or rather white and black) morning impression that he likes to call “a breathing meditation in the form of a fully linear animation”. We watch undefined and minimalist and yet familiar spectacles accompanied by everyday morning sounds.

Alexandra Májová’s humorous and playful film is a remarkable parable of human relationships. But in her film, a man isn’t trying to solve problems with a woman, but with a troublesome home appliance.

A secluded house in the countryside. And in it? A family cocktail of love, care, shared history and all kinds of gadgets and unfinished things. Or a space for living out the rest of one’s life peacefully. This simple documentary stop-motion animation pays tribute to the author’s parents and the things they left here. The director finds life and a special kind of beauty in them.

This anidoc based on a legend from the Second World War tells the tragic story of a young woman who chose a very unusual method of resistance – perhaps because she had nothing to lose.

After his film The Potato Eaters (2014), graduate of the Tomáš Baťa University in Zlín Martin Kukal presents his dynamic film set in a peculiar little shop at the end of the world. A sensitive animated short film about the insensitive human world.
