SUMMARY:Miami Film Festival / Animation: "Olivia & the Clouds" Directed by Tomás Pichardo Espaillat
DESCRIPTION:Olivia\, haunted by a past love\, hides it under her bed. She trades flowers with this ghost in exchange for comforting rain clouds. Barbara\, rejected by Mauricio\, escapes reality through fantastical stories. Mauricio\, full of regrets\, is swallowed by the earth. Ramón\, smitten by Olivia\, witnesses the growth of a strange plant mirroring her. \nOne of the most unique animated films in years\, Olivia & the Clouds blends an array of different animation styles — from claymation\, stop motion\, cut-outs\, and mixed media — to craft this unforgettable story about the enduring power of love’s memory. A vibrant debut that you can’t tear your eyes away from\, this is a surreal exploration of love’s complexities. \nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\nSunday April 6 – 12pm \nSilverspot CinemaRoom 13 \n\nBook Tickets

SUMMARY:Miami Film Festival / Animation - "Spermageddon" Directed by Tommy Wirkola\, Rasmus A. Sivertsen
DESCRIPTION:This is a movie about the beginning of life! A tale so basic and universal\, it’s a wonder no one has told it before. We’re talking about the race\, the origin of all races as it were\, between millions of sperm cells\, all frantically trying to fertilize a single egg. It’s a quest fraught with peril\, where all but one are doomed to failure. \nIn this colourful and outrageous animated musical\, an awkward teenage boy navigates his first sexual experience – meanwhile\, inside his scrotum\, a nervous sperm prepares to embark on the journey of a lifetime. A gleefully gross\, deceptively sweet coming of age story with a difference. \nTickets\nWhen: Sunday April 6 – 9pm \nWhere: Silverspot CinemaRoom 12 \nBook Tickets

SUMMARY:Miami Film Festival / Animation - "Boys Go to Jupiter" Directed by Julian Glander
DESCRIPTION:Julian Glander’s style is all his own\, featured everywhere from the New Yorker to Adult Swim\, and now a perfect match for the humid surrealism of Florida in Boys Go To Jupiter. \nSet during the liminal period between Christmas and New Year’s\, the film follows a week in the life of teenage delivery driver Billy 5000 (Jack Corbett) as he tries to out-smart the gig economy. After a routine dropoff\, Billy becomes the caretaker of a mysterious egg that hatches an alien creature. \nThrough ridiculous humor\, plenty of heart and a stellar voice cast (Comedic all stars Julio Torres\, Sarah Sherman\, Cole Escola\, & Janeane Garofalo to name a few) Billy navigates the difficult choices of life\, love and money that come along with becoming the unwelcomed parent of an alien creature. \nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\nTuesday April 8 – 9pm \nThe Bill Cosford Cinema \n\nBook Tickets
