REALITY BITES (30 minutos)

La animación abre nuevas maneras de afrontar el género documental.

Desde que en los años 50 Faith y John Hubley animasen la conversación no guionizada de sus hijos, y ganasen un oscar (Moonbird), diversos autores (Nick Park, Peter Lord, Tim Webb…) han usado la animación para expresar subjetivamente la realidad.

Este año Suecia toma el relevo de Inglaterra con autores como Hanna Heilborn y Jonas Odell, que, a diferencia de sus predecesores, apuestan por la animación infográfica en esta fructífera mezcla de géneros.
