Rixfilm@SaqAnima

We were invited to speak at the wonderful SaqAnima conference in Tbilisi. Small but powerful, this year's conference was mainly dedicated to the topic of stop motion. Thanks to  Mariam Kandelaki and her small but energetic team! SaqAnima is the relatively young Georgian Animation Film Association, which does a lot to ensure that Georgian animated film, but also the services of the local studios are better perceived in Europe and around the world.

Award for the “Second”

The German Filmbewertungsstelle awarded our short EINE SEKUNDE DER WELT with the highest grade "besonders wertvoll". Awesome. Here is the press text with the short form of the reason: "A second is not a long time. And yet so much can happen in it. A life can change forever, a love can begin, a person break, a thought illuminate. The writer Siegfried Lenz has this fascination with the smallest unit of time in his short story "One second of the world" captured.
