Klik! Amsterdam, 12-17 Nov 2013: Midnight Madness

 

 From 12-17 November  (EYE filmmuseum, Amsterdam), KLIK! Amsterdam Animation Festival  presents an all-encompassing programme of short films in various competitive categories, and not-to-be-missed features. 

 Its distinctive programme is Midnight Madness. The festival description reads: ' Those films that make you go, “What the flying fuck were these people thinking/sniffing/smoking?” And, “Where can we get some more of that good stuff?” To share this wonderful feeling of alienation, bewilderment, and delight, we present you with the very weirdest the animation world has produced over the years.

If you’re brave enough to venture into a program that collects the damned, the strange, and the damned strangest from the world of animation, you’ll never look at the medium in the same way ever again... Just keep repeating: “It’s only a movie! It’s only a movie! It’s only... a movie?”

A cartoony relation of a couple in the Greek Andreas & Christina (Aristarchos Papadaniel) the dinosaur-explicit Belgium film, The Sexual Life of Dinosaurs (Delphine Hermans) or the computer-based Kamazutra (Herve Lopez, France) investigate the comic limits of naughtiness.
