The Encounters Nominated Shorts Season continues with the Oscar® Animation nominations presented in partnership with Shorts International. This programme includes the UK's only, but very strong nomination A Morning Stroll by Grant Orchard. Loosely inspired by a real life event recounted in Paul Auster's book 'True Tales of American Life' this animation has been thrust into the public eye since picking up the Best British Animation award at Encounters last November. Now with awards from Sundance and BAFTA, all eyes are on the Oscars®. The beautifully illustrated French animation Dimanche/Sunday by Patrick Doyon also screened in competition at Encounters festival last year and features within the programme. Find out who came out on top at the Academy Awards® ceremony on 26 Feb.

The Academy Awards® will take place on 26 February. To find out more about the Oscar® nominated short films and animations visit the Encounters blog.
