Description

In May, the festival will screen Penguin Highway (Japan 2018), a fantastical summer adventure that tells the story of Aoyama, a precocious fourth-grader who vows to solve the mystery of a group of penguins that appears out of the blue in his suburban neighbourhood. Strangely enough, the evidence seems to point towards some peculiar power possessed, by his adult crush; Tito and the Birds (Brazil, 2018), a film that mixes oil-painting brushstrokes with digital tools to paint an exhilarating story of a young boy’s quest to save the world from fear; and The Wolf House (Chile/Germany, 2018), a ground-breaking stop-motion animation, utilising experimental techniques to create an uncanny yet seductive nightmare.
