Yes, we recognize the beauties, because the short animation film Logorama we screened at our festival is nominated for an Academy Award! We keep our fingers crossed for the people of H5, especially Nicolas Schmerkin.
Een van de populairdere films van het AFFR 2009 was Megunica van Lorenzo Fonda (2008) over de animatie/graffitti artiest Blu.

. Sunday December 13 at 18.25 on Dutch TV Ned.2: the TV premiere of Oscar Niemeyer – La vida es un sopro, one of the hits of AFFR 2009.
We receive many questions about the availability of films screened at AFFR2009, for public screenings or for private DVD purchases.
So far, the movie Garbage Warrior (Oliver Hodge, 2007) is one of the audience favorite. The film runs Sunday, November 1 again.
Snakebit is made for American public television, but has not been aired. AFFR is therefore even more proud that the movie is to prepremiere in the Netherlands. The movie is eagerly awaited for months by many fans. Sam Wainwright Douglas, the director is one of the special guests on the AFFR.
Oscar Niemeyer, A vida e um sopro (Fabiano Maciel, 2008)
The filmmaker worked over ten years to complete this documentary on the monumental architect. “Oscar Niemeyer, A vida é um sopro (” Life Is But a Breath “, a statement the 100+ years old Niemeyer regularly makes in interviews) has become an impressive document. The viewer is introduced to the works, the life and ideas of this brilliant Brazilian. Even if you’re already familiar with his oeuvre, the documentary is well worth to watch.
