Son Of Satan > JJ Villard
USA, 2003 > 12'50
Inspired by the writings of Charles Bukowski, this piece goes deep inside a bad situation and watches as it gets worse.

Medusa - First Date > Pierce Davison
Australia, 2004 > 3'00
Dating Medusa - the chick that can turn you to stone and has snakes for hair? Sounds like a bad idea to us.

Daikon Ashi > Ru Kuwahata
USA, 2004 > 1'30
And today's topic is....thighs!

Five O'Clock Shadow > Malcolm Lamont
UK, 2004 > 8'30
A forlorn bald man attempts to woo his bearded, jazz singing neighbour.

Balance / Bascule > Sebastien d'Abrigeon
France, 2004 > 3'30
You probably never knew that umbrellas had so many special powers.

Aquatoria > Andrey Tsvetkov
Bulgaria, 2004 > 4'15
A slightly bewildering, entirely beguiling saga of a little Dali fish dreaming of freedom.

Rix Pix Nix Hix > Rick Raxlen
Canada, 2004 > 4'45
Another spendid visual overload from Rick Raxlen - many felt pens were probably harmed in the making of this film.

The Crab's Revolution > Arthur de Pins
France, 2004 > 5'00
The crabs are getting restless.
-- An international audience favourite --

Beak / Bek > Lucette Braune > Holland 2004 > 10'00
A powerful, enthralling saga about a special little girl abandoned to the circus.

Guard Dog > Bill Plympton
USA, 2004 > 5'00
The release of a new Plympton short is always an occasion. You'll laugh 'til you bark.

Imprints > Jacques Drouin
Canada, 2004 > 6'00
Pinscreen animation - one of the most intriguing and painstaking ways to create a film.

The Man Without A Shadow > Georges Schwizgebel
Switzerland, 2004 > 9'30
Simply glorious. A painted and perspective-bending tour de force.
