PREMISES:
Casino de Espinho (Official Screenings) and Cine-Teatro S. Pedro

A PASSION NAMED ANIMATION
The setting: the sea.
A small seaside resort in the Northern Portugal: Espinho.
By merit, the capital of animation.
And 23 years have already gone by!
A dream.
A project.
A desire that became real.
The passion for the stroke of a brush, for movement.
The creativity of an art so singular in itself. Many regards it with sceptiscism.
Others, such as the organisers of this festival see it as a major art.
The Organisation of the 23rd edition promises to offer you, once again, their best. To present, both in the Competitive Programmes and retrospectives, what is being done throughout the world.
We bid you welcome to Espinho!
Welcome to Cinanima 99!
