Animation Now! #1: Into the Light 

79 minutes

In the world of animation, anything is possible – the rules that bind theatre, literature or even live action film just don’t apply. If you can imagine it, you can create it.

This creates infinite possibilities for stories that can’t be told in any other form. It also helps that the audience for animation is usually up for the challenge.

Into the Light parades an eclectic group of charming animated films with a unique glaze, each telling its own inspiring and affecting story, often finding that glimmer of light in the most unexpected places. — MT
