LIAF 2017: British Showcase (15)

October 20, 2017 by LIAF

A comprehensive screening of the very best recently released British animation, including several world premieres. Check the pulse of the British animation scene, meet many of the filmmakers and see the films that will take British animation to the world. This is an exceptional opportunity to see what British animators are doing, how they’re doing it and how the art form is travelling. Several filmmakers will be present at the screening to introduce their work.
