French Animation in the Spotlight for the First Time

Programme planners from the USA, Japan, Slovenia, Austria and Canada have been invited to share their vision of French Animation. Taking on the roles of mirrors and prisms, they will offer you a fragmented and colourful kaleidoscopic image of animated filmmaking in France.

130 Years of Friendship Between France and Korea Celebrated in Animation
On June 4th 1886, France and Korea signed a treaty of friendship, commerce and navigation, establishing the first diplomatic relations between the two countries. The Year France-Korea 2015-2016 event has accordingly been organized as a symbol of this 130-year long relationship.
Cultural events in museums, theatres, concert halls and public spaces will be taking place in France and Korea throughout the year, to represent both classic and innovating art forms.
