History

It's a film festival - open to professionals, enthusiasts, and the simply curious - whose aim is to discover and promote animation and new technologies applied to cinema, particularly among young audiences and artists from different cultures and nations.[2]
The competition features a selection of feature films and a selection of shorts, screened in one or more downtown cinemas. Prizes are awarded for the best use of new digital technologies, and the "Grand Prix Platinium[3]" is awarded to the best film in the competition.[4]
