Big topicts and Private life
The competition program of this year consists 17 animated and 24 video films.
Extra short format of films, doesn't need long time for their production, but allows authors to be actual in due present times and simultaneously artly to interpret life realities. It confirms efficiency and accord of time at many presented works.
Rising violency in a society, finds reflection in such films as "Missed target" by Denis Sychev - the keeper of grand-prix for animation in 2010, "Fun time", Alexey Andrianov from Moscow, "Last hippie" by Michael Schmake from Berlin, "Extreme times" by Tsvetafor art-group (Moscow)
To a theme of ecology and human garbage films are addressed: "Trash", Marina by Moshkova (St.-Petersburg) and "Home" - a product of joint creativity by Semen Shiryaiki & Igor Tatarnikov (Moscow)
Logic of absurdity as the alternative to the mad world is a structural line in works "Loaf" by Grigorii Hishko (Moscow), "Time is up" by Verika Kovalevska from Zurich, "Diet" by Vladimir Shlokov from Ekaterinburg.
The majority of films are anyhow connected with human relations….love… sex … children.
