Enjoy the sauciest selection of short animated films made by female* directors. This is our second program celebrating the female sexy and erotic gaze. And there’s more to come.

It aims to develop *female (including cisgender, transgender and non-binary people) freelancers’ skills while connecting them with other people active in the animation industry.
