Enjoy our three shorts programmes covering Horror, Documentary and Scottish across the weekend our Manipulate Festival.
These shorts explore the very best in animation worldwide.
Our Scottish collection explores bold experimental works to imaginative worlds and thought-provoking social commentaries, each film reflects the creativity, technical skill, and distinctive voice of its maker. The Documentary programme is a journey through stories that entertain, challenge, and enlighten in equal measure. Each film stands as a testament to the boundless possibilities of animation where emotion, humour, and imagination collide to reveal new ways of seeing the world. Finally our Horror selection is a dark and mesmerising collection of horror and thriller shorts showcasing the extraordinary power of animation to illuminate the shadowy corners of the human imagination.
