In their second selection of outstanding new animated films Leeds International Film Festival present recent work by two established stop-motion specialists (and LIFF alumni).
Bear Hug by Margrethe Danielsen is a sublime tragi-comic Norwegian puppet animation, Ülo Pikkov’s Til We Meet Again uses natural materials to explore themes of loss and displacement on an Estonian island. New talent is represented by Robert-Jonathan Koeyers whose film It’s Nice In Here premiered at Cannes festival and IDODO by Ursula Ulmi is our first film narrated in Tok-Pisin, a creole language used throughout Papua New Guinea.
