Anthology of Polish Children's Animation (1947-2000)

“

An Anthology of Polish Children's Animation includes almost forty shorts chosen from amongst several hundred award-winning or critically well-received films from the last 60 years. Although it does not include selections from the most popular animated series (they deserve a separate release), some of those characters, like Bolek and Lolek or Rexie are represented here, as they had previously appeared in separate films. The works presented here contain no violence, but are intended not only for younger viewers, but also for lovers of art film, who will value their unusually high artistic quality and innovative form. Among the directors included are some of the most famous names in Polish animation, among them Zenon Wasilewski, Witold Giersz, Daniel Szczechura, Julian Antonisz, and Academy Award-winner Zbigniew Rybczynski. - Marcin Gizycki
