Even Mice Belong to an Exhibition

Puppet feature film Even Mice Belong to Heaven follows the acclaimed tradition of Czech puppet animation and its makers are former students of Břetislav Pojar – experienced directors and graphic designers Denisa Grimmová and Jan Bubeníček. After several years, they managed to bring their vision to life and their spectacular film will have its Czech premiere
at this year’s Anifilm. The film with a distinct artistic style boasts superb animation and unique puppets and settings. Fantastic environments complement the remarkable realistic sceneries inspired by the stunning nature of the Central Bohemian Uplands and the area surrounding Litoměřice. The film’s decorations are often formed by real natural elements like parts of trees or moss. Many details of the film, whose artistic design was created by Denisa Grimmová, will remain hidden to the viewers at the first glance. Spacious decorations often appear in it for just a few minutes. But many decorations and complete scenes including puppets from the film were luckily preserved, and the film’s premiere will be accompanied by an extensive exhibition which will be open until the end of 2021. You will find it in the Garden Wing of the Liberec Chateau, which had been previously closed to the public.

Shapeable Visual Identity – Oz Animation

You will have noticed that the visual identity of this year’s Anifilm uses clay (for the first time in the festival’s history, as a matter of fact). Its authors, Eliška and Lee Oz, have prepared small but real demonstrations for the festival visitors – scraps of scenes that can be seen in their wild festival jingle. Not ones and zeros, but real physical matter animated by the hands of the Moravian-Israeli duo.
