Cluster Eunic Milano in collaboration with Cinema Beltrade is pleased to present the short film marathon Animazione in corto – i talenti europei on the occasion of the European Arthouse Cinema Day.

EUNIC Milano is keen to emphasize its commitment to promoting European cultural diversity in its key projects, as it has been over the years with the Festival of European Literature or the more recent Contemporary European Film Days. The initiatives always focus on themes that are as specific as they are universal, such as cultural diversity, social integration and immigration.

The 10 animated short films come from the Czech Republic, Spain, Austria, Romania, French-speaking Belgium, Hungary, France, Switzerland, Poland and Croatia and are made by Europe’s youngest talents, a selection that tells of different worlds and visions within the European space.

Istituto Svizzero presents the short film ARMAT, by young Geneva-based director Élodie Dermange.
