Synopsis
Initiated in 2018 and filmed across several countries, the film offers an unprecedented immersion into the world of animation artists, enriched with clips from some of the greatest masterpieces in animation history, with the support of major studios including Disney, Pixar, and Netflix.
From hand-drawn techniques to stop-motion, paper cut-outs, and cutting-edge CGI, it celebrates a craft built on illusion, patience, and imagination, as well as the fragile magic of an art form increasingly challenged by artificai l intelligence.
Through exclusive interviews and BTS access, it brings together a remarkable constellation of filmmakers, artists, and animation legends.
