From the Judges, on THE STONE VILLAGE
An animated adaptation rooted in the filmmakers' own heritage and told in its native language, this short reaches for something genuinely its own. The panel responded to its inventive blend of animation styles and to a score they found beautiful throughout, an artistic sensibility that gives the whole piece its distinctive texture. They admired its originality and the creative spirit behind bringing this story to the screen.
