Animation Nation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Animation Nation is an annual film festival in Singapore featuring animation feature films, short films, seminars and workshops. The festival was created by the Singapore Film Society in 2004 and took place every year until 2011. The latest edition was held from 21 to 22 November 2022.[1]

Besides films from around the world, the festival also screens local animation works in a programme called Singapore Showcase.[2] This is to promote talents in Singapore and bring awareness to the public.
