Extras
Midnight Snack: We Are Human, After All
“We Are Human, After All” brings together animated shorts that celebrate humanity through animals, ghostly spirits and unconventional figures. Fragile, playful, stubborn, dreamy and sometimes ridiculously funny, they comprise a cute, bittersweet selection of characters who reflect the soul of the smallest Swiss animation film festival in Savigny.
