"Devotion", directed by LISAA Animation & Video Games students, screened at festivals
Directed by LISAA Animation graduates of 2018, "Devotion" has now been selected for several festivals.
On the road to success
Already selected at the Festival du court-métrage de Vélizy, "Devotion" is continuing along the path of success. Made by LISAA Animation & Video Games students as part of their end-of-studies project, the 3-D animated film has now been nominated at several international festivals.
A metaphor for literary criticism, Devotion portrays stone figures carrying huge books on their backs—characters advancing towards judgement despite the obstacles they face.
This animated film has been hailed a success by the New Vision International Film Festival in Amsterdam, the Dumbo Film Festival in New York, the Festival du film Merveilleux & Imaginaire in Paris, the Santiago Independent Film Festival (SIFF) (Chile) in the Best Animation category and recently by PIAFF, the Paris International Animation Film Festival 2019, where it will be screened on 17th September, 2019.
