Edouard Salier is an animator with an awe-inspiring vision for his films. His best known films (“Flesh” and “Empire”) tackle enormous subjects and depict enormous environments – porn adorns entire cityscapes, whole cities are razed over and over by acts of war (or terror??), the military machine infiltrates the very DNA of unquestioning societies. His works get bigger, more complex, more challenging and more ambitious as he goes. His command of digital animation technologies is among the most assured of anybody working in the field and his work just keeps getting better and better – his latest film, “4”, is an immense and challenging achievement.

Unfortunately Edouard Salier will not be attending the festival. The full program will be screened with an extended introduction from Director Malcolm Turner, but the Q&A session afterwards has been cancelled. But please don't let this deter you!! This will be an amazing collection of films that you shouldn't miss.
