Nekoliko predstojećih, a obećavajućih animiranih filmova

The Spine of Night (Morgan Galen King & Philip Gelatt)

 

... autori najavljuju kao "mračni i psihodelični ep, smešten u (fiktivni) svet njihovih kratkometražnih filmova". Prema podacima sa zvaničnog sajta, u pitanju je antologija koja je sačinjena od šest segmenata, pet individualnih i jednog objedinjujućeg. Ako je suditi po Exordium-u, za očekivati je da opravda poređenja sa rotoskopskim animacijama kao što su Heavy Metal i Fire and Ice.

 

 

Арвентур (Ирина Евтеева) 

 

"Arventur is a dilogy about an imaginary land that is magically visited by the films' characters. The first part is based on Alexander Grin's story Fandango and takes place in Saint-Petersburg in 1921. The second part, called The Mystery of the Sea View is based on a Daoist parable about a great Chinese artist and the Emperor..." (www.moscowfilmfestival.ru)

Promotivni video pokazuje da ruska umetnica nastavlja da neguje svoj jedinstven stil, koji njena dela čini drugačijim i vizuelno očaravajućim.

Malá z rybárny (Jan Balej)

Stop-motion ostvarenja su uvek dobrodošla, a naročito ovo koje dolazi od reditelja delirične crne komedije Jedné noci v jednom městě i pri tom predstavlja iščašenu verziju bajke Mala sirena...

 

 

Kahlil Gibran's The Prophet (Roger Allers)

 

"Set in a Mediterranean seaside village, Kamila (Salma Hayek) cleans house for exiled artist and poet Mustafa (Liam Neeson), but the more difficult job is keeping her free-spirited young daughter, Almitra (Quvenzhané Wallis), out of trouble. 

 

The three embark on a journey meant to end with Mustafa's return home - but first they must evade the authorities who fear that the truth in his words will incite rebellion."

Trejler otkriva eklektični stil, što ne treba da čudi, budući da Rodžer Alers (The Lion King) okuplja animatore sa svih krajeva sveta, različitih generacija i senzibiliteta, među kojima se ističu braća Pol i Gaetan Brici (Le Piaf), Bil Plimton (Idiots & Angels) i Tom Mur (The Secret of Kells & Song of the Sea). Moram da priznam da nisam upoznat sa Džubranovim stihovima, ali mi Prorok svejedno deluje vrlo primamljivo.

 

 

Avril et le monde truqué (Christian Desmares & Franck Ekinci)

"The work of the great comic book artist Jacques Tardi is cleverly and beautifully carried to the big screen in April and the Extraordinary World (Avril et le monde truque) a surreal sci-fi period piece that reimagines mid-20th century Paris as a smog-filled, steam-powered Napoleonic empire whose future lies in the hands of an orphaned young woman – voiced by French star Marion Cotillard.
 

Winner of the top prize at this year’s Annecy fest, the StudioCanal release – directed by Christian Desmares and Franck Ekinci – is another case of Gallic animation providing a witty 2D alternative to mainstream feature-length fare, in a movie that pays homage to both film noir and Jules Verne while satirizing France’s industrial past..."

Tout en haut du monde (Rémi Chayé)

"1892, Saint Petersburg. Sasha, a young Russian aristocrat, has always been fascinated by her grandfather's life as an adventurer. A renowned explorer, he designed a magnificent arctic ship, but he hasn't returned from his last expedition to the North Pole. To save her family's honor, Sasha runs away. Headed towards the Great North, she follows her grandfather's trail in search of his famous ship." (www.IMDb.com)

 

Rediteljski debi Remija Šajea, koji je kao animator sarađivao sa Murom na The Secret of Kells, Monferijem na Kérity, la maison des contes i Lagionijem na Le tableau.

Battledream Chronicle (Alain Bidard)

Za promenu, malo egzotike - prvi animirani film koji dolazi sa Martinika. Sinopsis zvuči aktuelno, a u isti mah zagledan u prošlost ostrva.

"In 2100, the empire of Mortemonde colonize almost all the nations of the Earth and reduce their populations to slavery. The slaves are constrained to collect 1000XP every month in Battledream, a video game where we can die for real. Only those who succeed receive the right to live until the next month. Syanna, a young martinican slave, refuses to keep living in this condition and decides to fight to regain her freedom..." (www.IMDb.com)

Gyakusatsu Kikan / Harmony / Shisha no Teikoku

 

Tri naučnofantastična animea zasnovana na romanima rano preminulog japanskog pisca Satošija Itoua, koji je stvarao pod pseudonimom Itō Keikaku (Project Itoh). Gyakusatsu Kikan (Genocidni organ) režira Šukou Murase (Ergo Proxy), Harmony Majkl Arijas (Tekkon Kinkreet) i Takaši Nakamura (Fantastic Children), dok Shisha no Teikoku (Carstvo leševa) potpisuje Rjutarou Makihara (Hal). Trejler 1 / Trejler 2

 

 

Da Hai (Liang Xuan)

 

Već nekoliko puta odlagan, Da Hai je, kako opis sa AniDB-a kaže, "priča o iskupljenju i požrtvovanosti", koja se bavi temama kao što su ljubav, smrt i sazrevanje emocija, a u čijem središtu je šesnaestogodišnja Čun, "suočena sa sopstvenim ograničenjima".

The Customized Play (Jin Sung Choi)

 

Dugometražni prvenac autora uvrnute fantazije Entering the Mind Through the Mouth, o predstavama koje su prilagođene gledaocu, kao što se iz naslova i može naslutiti. Iza impresivnih pokretnih slika krije se mala ekipa. Zvanični sajt / Trejler

Mutafukaz (Shoujirou Nishimi & Guillaume Renard)

"Angelino is just one of thousands of deadbeats living in Dark Meat City. But an otherwise unremarkable scooter accident caused by a beautiful, mysterious stranger is about to transform his life... into a waking nightmare! He starts seeing monstrous forms prowling around all over the city... Is Angelino losing his mind, or could an alien invasion really be happening this quietly...?" (www.IMDb.com)

Francusko-japanska koprodukcija koja u najavi miriše na ludilo... Trejler

The God Hunters (Wang Chuan)

"Some years after the pilgrimage to the West, a magic city is quietly thriving below the 33rd layer of Heaven. Wukong (The Monkey King) and a task force of "God Hunters" are entrusted with the mission of killing God Erlang. Priest Tang, Friar Sand and Bajie are also involved…"

Iskreno se nadam da ovaj "kineski anime" neće doživeti sudbinu nekih od svojih prethodnika i zauvek zadržati status "u produkciji"... Trejler

 

 

Master Jiang and the Six Kingdoms (Li Wei & Pei Fei)

 

I za kraj, još jedan eye-candy iz Kine, koji sam spomenuo i prilikom obeležavanja 5 godina bloga. Navodno, reditelji su potpuno sami radili na raspamećujuće lepoj animaciji petominutnog trejlera.
