WTF animation for adults

The program is shown without Lithuanian subtitles (films are subtitled in English)!

Animated short film programme for adults “WTF” is back in the cinemas! It is time to add glitter, tears of joy, white-knuckles, and shrieks of surprise to our daily routine by escaping with 11 crazy short films. You will shudder watching the disturbing creatures, experience insomnia where sheep won’t be your saviour, terrify macho men in the Parisian underground, float around in caustic universes, lose your mind, legs, and more. It won’t be a comfortable or relaxing ride, but it will definitely be unforgettable!

“WTF” screenings are a part of the events organized to celebrate International Short Film Day in Lithuania. The European film community celebrates it on the 21st of December - the shortest day of the year. The programme is presented by the Lithuanian short film agency "Lithuanian Shorts" together with the Annecy International Animation Film Festival (France).
