Oscar Nominated Short Films: Animation
Presented by the Edmonton International Film Festival Society.
An exclusive 1-night screening of the five (5) nominated short films in the Animation category.
The 2025 OSCAR® Nominated Animated Shorts (runtime: 90-mins.) are another incredible collection of divergent artists working in the field of animation. Stop-motion sojourns to Turkey in search of confidence, a silent window into familial relationships rocked by trauma and PTSD, and three very different stories about the innocence and wonder of youth. Once again, the nominated filmmakers in the Animation category inspire and delight with their creations.
