Fantastic Animation Festival (1977) – Secret Sundays
This time around for Secret Sundays from the Vault (SSFTV), we are proud to screen FANTASTIC ANIMATION FESTIVAL, a collection of award winning animations. In 1977, long before Liquid Television penetrated the suburban psyche via MTV in the 90s, this film introduced arthouse cinema-goers to some of the most ambitious animated short films of the ’70s. Featuring several treatments for pop/rock musicians like Pink Floyd and Cat Stevens, you will definitely get a glimpse at the primordial ooze that would become the “music video” just a few years later.
