Presented in partnership with the National Film Board of Canada (NFB/ONF), this masterclass led by filmmakers Bogdan Anifrani-Fedach (To Our Future Ancestors), Ian Keteku (To Our Future Ancestors), and Bahij Jaroudi (Bisou Sauvage) offers an intimate look into the creative processes of four visionary filmmakers. Each director will share the artistic, conceptual, and production journey behind their work — from early inspiration and research to visual development and final execution.

The masterclasses will conclude with a networking reception, offering attendees the opportunity to continue the conversation with the filmmakers. For creators looking to push their craft and expand their creative thinking, this is a rare opportunity to engage directly with artists redefining contemporary animation.
