ABOUT Stuttgart - Metropolis of the Animated Film:
The 16th Stuttgart Festival of Animated Film has not only stimulated eyes and ears, but all five senses over six exciting days and nights. During the open air screenings, visitors lifted their noses to breathe the sweet smell of popcorn floating in the air, whilst enjoying excellent animation entertainment. They used their hands to explore the wild brush lines of the charming live painter Kozue Kodama in the Festival Garden. Finally they needed their mouths to talk to the many filmmakers present.
From the 5th to the 10th over May over 650 films are to be screened in Baden-Wuerttemberg’s state capital. After six interesting days the festival ends with the award ceremony on Sunday evening.
