The After of the World

By Florentina Gonzales
France / 2022 / 11′ / Animation 2D
Autour de Minuit

Humanity no longer exists, only Fluor and Carlix now remain, two ghosts in sportswear.
They wander among the remains of an extinct civilization, one looking for a Wi-Fi connection, the other
looking for the head of a giant cetacean. A story of meeting and friendship, punctuated by an ultimate playlist : that of the end of the world.

Absence

By Marc Héricher
France /12′ / Animation 3D
Production : Autour de Minuit

Alone in the center of a barren square, the old man in rags collapses.
Suffering, he suffers a parade of contempt from passers-by. However, at the end of the harsh season, the journalists put their camera in front of him. Since then, the spirits become empathetic and try to penetrate the pain of the unfortunate, frozen in his position on all fours. Each offers him, in his way, of love, money, a teddy bear, in a monstrous and absurd process.
