!!!Křehce jede do Annecy!!!
Animovaný film Křehce, který vytvořila na Katedře animované tvorby Jamaica Kindlová, bude uveden na mezinárodním festivalu Annecy @annecyfestival v oficiální soutěži studentských filmů!
Animovaný film Křehce / Gently sleduje očima malého chlapce zdánlivě obyčejné dětství. Ručně kreslená animace uhlem odhaluje strach a napětí domova, které nutí chlapce, aby byl neustále ve střehu a vždy připraven k útěku. Film přenáší tělesný prožitek dítěte a je inspirován skutečnými dětskými vzpomínkami čtyř dospělých.
Film vznikl v koprodukci BATCH film, FAMU a Nadačního fondu FILMTALENT Zlín, ve spolupráci s neziskovou organizací Dům otevřených možností.

!!!Gently is going to Annecy!!!
The animated film Gently, created by Jamaica Kindlová at the Department of Animation, will be presented at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival in the Graduation Films Official Selection
The animated film Gently shows us the seemingly ordinary childhood through the eyes of a little boy. Hand-drawn charcoal animation reveals the fear of home that forces the boy to be constantly on alert and ready to flee. The film conveys the child’s bodily experience on screen, drawing inspiration from the real childhood memories of four adults
The film was produced in co-production with BATCH film, FAMU – Film and TV School of the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague, and the FILMTALENT Zlín Endowment Fund, in collaboration with the organization Dům otevřených možností.

We still have some pictures left, so if you didn’t get a chance to buy them at Anifilm and would like to have a little piece of @krehce_gently at home, send us a message — one (or more) can be yours!
And if you’re coming to @zlinfilmfestival , message me today and I’ll bring the picture for you. Meet me from Friday to Sunday/Monday.
Another chance is in Annecy or in Prague.

I talk with my grandma about our garden a lot. 🌱 A few weeks ago, she sent me a photo of these cute little baby birds in the woodshed. Now these baby birds are gone. They were probably too small to fly away… so there’s only one main suspect: the neighbourhood cat!
