We’re so excited to invite you to the HANDS IN FRAME short film festival. HANDS IN FRAME is an exciting evening of short films, specifically short films featuring experimentation in animation and puppetry. These films utilize various mediums and modes of both live and animated object manipulation to push storytelling boundaries and activate the imagination.
The same full program of films will be shown both nights and several of the filmmakers will be present to share insight into their process.
