A sci fi secret agent must defeat a band of monsters who have been abducting goldfish to power their ultimate weapon. An artist desperately races against time to make the most important and beautiful creation of his life. A housebound dog is eager to embark upon adventure — just as soon as he get can get past one obstacle: the front door.(view full program)Since our first event in 2011, NWAF has hosted 150 screenings — which showcased 1142 juried film selections. The festival has been an immersive animation holiday that superfans looked forward to year-round. It has been a family reunion that brought enthusiasts, creators, and industry all together in one place. We’ve watched young people grow up, spark with inspiration, and leave for college to become animators themselves. The festival has been an enormous labor of love… And it’s time to say goodbye.But! The world of independent animation continues! On the weekend of May 25-26, NWAF and the Hollywood Theatre are pleased to introduce Portland audiences to GLAS Animation from Berkeley. Brainchild of director Jeanette Bonds, GLAS has quickly become the USA’s new premiere animation event.GLAS X PORTLANDFor this special one-weekend event, the Bay Area’s GLAS Animation brings their world-class programming to Portland, with a curated selection of shorts drawn from their 2019 festival.
