Fantoche is both a festival for the general public and a meeting place for the film and creative industries in equal measure. It features an international and a national short-film competition, a carefully selected programme of new animated feature films, special themes with an in-depth look at the medium of animation, a varied programme for children and school groups, as well as a differentiated range of talks, panel discussions, presentations and exhibitions. Fantoche places great importance on a carefully structured programme, generates its own programme ideas and content, and always seeks to get the balance right between experimentation and good entertainment. With its broad understanding of animation and the careful inclusion of related forms of art and communication, Fantoche is steadily broadening its horizons, thereby continuously reaching out to a new audience and tapping into a new pool of expertise. Fantoche is every bit as refreshing, fun-loving and lively as the untamable genre to which the festival is devoted. It has a particular preference for artistic films, loves experimentation and is always on the look-out for new trends and young talent. Its in-depth exploration of individual themes, aspects or styles in classical animation are just as much part of Fantoche as insights into the animated film production process and the desire to cross borders into related areas, such as art, media, industry and entertainment.
