Festival Anima : Animated Night

We dream about it all year long, and here it is: the very essence of the Festival, in its Flagey in Studio 4 setting, served on a bed of amusement and topped with music and entertainment. An excellent vintage awaits…

All films are in original version, English, French and Dutch st.
