Telling Stories is a Film Industry Day where film and AV makers, art students and professionals can get in touch and gather tons of inspiration. One of the highlights from this years program is a panel discussion about animated documentary. The animated documentary is on the rise. How do the two seemingly different disciplines of documentary and animation relate? We compare visual language and work processes. An interview-style conversation with innovative animators like Danish director Jonas Poher Rasmussen (Flee) and Dutch documentary and filmmaker Milou Gevers. The panel is led by animation director Juliana Erazo.
