ANIMATION FILM IN THE NEW ANITA
On Friday the 22nd, Klik takes responsibility for Animanita with the film Allegro non Troppo. It is an Italian animated film by Bruno Bozzetto that is simultaneously a spoof of and an homage to Fantasia, in which classical music accompanies various animations. In contrast to the saccharine Disney style, Bozzetto's film is more down-to-earth, mature, and absurd: during the live-action segments framing the animations, an orchestra consisting of elderly ladies is terrorized by a tyrannical conductor and a media-obsessed presenter. The animator is dragged from his chains into the dungeon and then put to work, to be abused for every minor mistake.
In the animations, an old satyr is confronted with his sexual frustration when the lovely nymphs do not respond to his advances, an emaciated cat in a burnt-down house reminisces about the inhabitants, and new life forms emerge from a carelessly discarded cola bottle that go through the entire evolutionary process.
The film is permeated with a sense of loss, nostalgia, and transience, yet sprinkled with a sharp humorous touch.
Prior to the main feature, we will screen a few films that we believe are set to make a big impression at the festival, and on the dance floor, snippets of last year's hits and next month's promising titles will pique your curiosity. And, of course, you can dance to cheerful music once again.
So come by, a good time is guaranteed.
Starts promptly at 20:30, bar opens at 19:30, entrance fee 5 euros for the entire evening.
