This collection is the latest addition to Ottawa’s store of short animated works. Highlights include Carlo Vogele’s tragicomic Una Furtiva Lagrima, a fish’s musical journey from net to frying pan; the hilarious crowd-favorite I Am Tom Moody, which takes the audience into the subconscious mind of a stifled musician trying to sing; and Hisko Hulsing’s stunning grand-prize winner Junkyard, in which a man recalls a childhood friendship after he is robbed by a junkie.
