Event information

Independent animation is an art form that continues to thrive and develop as a breath-taking medley of styles, materials, techniques and production – from hand-drawn, paint on glass, collage, sculpture, cut-outs, puppets, abstract to some of the more interesting developments in CGI – all of which can be seen at this year’s London International Animation Festival (LIAF).

It’s back. LIAF’s annual walk on the wild side featuring the most twisted films to emerge this year. We dug deep to find the best and this is what you find when you go down that far. The ever-popular Late Night Bizarre programme is a bunch of anti-classics guaranteed to be as far away from Disney as it’s possible to get. A dirty fistful of 15 of the weirdest, wildest, most demented films hand-picked from the 2,400 entered.

Animation is such an unbridled artform and it unleashes some of the most unleashable imaginations on the planet. The temptation to ‘go wide’ is played out time and time again by these animators as they bring to the screen barely imaginable scenarios, crazy battling juxtapositions and boil-your-eyes imagery.

Expect a dependably depraved screening of animated specimens from the wrong side of the tracks including elusive ghosts inhabiting a woman's dreams, an extinct ground sloth named Edith, AI madness, hideous specimens on a TV dating show and …the Beatles!

This is the second of two programmes tonight, the Music Video showcase screens beforehand at 7pm. You can buy tickets for both screenings at the special price of £14/£10 + booking fee.
