- About
- Submission Info
Anima is the only festival of its kind in Belgium. It always takes place during the ‘Carnaval’ school holidays, and usually in the former Flagey radio building in Brussels. Normally, there are also decentralization programmes in a number of locations in Wallonia and Flanders. Exceptionally, due to health reasons, the 40th edition will take place online only.
Anima is one of the most important festivals in Europe and is qualified to nominate its candidates for the Oscar® for best animated short film. It is also famous for its friendly atmosphere and its pancakes!
