Nine shorts from around the world come together to form an expertly curated celebration of movement and texture that’s not your average collection of sick, twisted, and stillborn cartoons. The subject matter (wooden matches die for a cigarette, two Norwegian construction workers debate normalcy, a painterly backdrop sets the tone for a Chinese monk tracking a tiger) is as varying as the animation styles (stop motion, pixilation, rustic CGI). A worthwhile gathering, perfect for everyone old enough to read subtitles. (2011) — Scott Marks
