Armenian animated films to participate in Encounters festival in Bristol

Former President of Warner Bros. Feature Animation, current President of Exodus Film Group Max Howard said that ReAnimania festival is among the best festivals, as many people worked diligently for its creation. “And it was very important not to lose the achievements gained over a year, while Vrej Kassouny has succeeded in it,” Max Howard told a press conference in Yerevan on September 9.

Co-founder of Aardman Animations David Sproxton agreed with Howard, saying that, as Chairman of Encounters festival in Bristol (Great Britain), he is rather interested in screening of Armenian animated films in the festival and in exchange of films. “After a four-year interruption, the festival will be resumed and we are interested in expanding its boundaries,” noted David Sproxton.

Director of ReAnimania festival Vrej Kassouny noted that Armenia will become the first Transcaucasian countries, films of which will participate in Bristol festival.
