Toonocalypse follows John and Michael, two students living in Edinburgh, as they document the arrival on Earth of a species of small, cute, cartoon aliens, known as “Toons”.

Skameiki No. 0458 (Benches No. 0458)
Ivan Maximov / Russland / 03/2015 / 00:06:32 min.
Strange shapes run amok in a city park. They interfere in each other’s business in the most absurd ways, sit together on a bench and generally get on each other’s nerves.
Stakleni čovjek (Transparency)
Daniel Šuljić / Kroatien / 07/2015 / 00:06:10 min.
Moving through a world filled with scanners and surveillance algorithms, while frivolously using different social networks, online forms and credit cards, the man of today gives away his privacy voluntarily. A decent citizen has nothing to hide. Only criminals do.
