In the spirit of reconciliation the Anim’Action Film Festival acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community.

We pay our respect to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.

The Anim’Action Film Festival, under the patronage of the French Embassy, in partnership with the Annecy International Animation Film Festival, celebrates the vivid culture of animation and offers, over three days of screenings and introductions by filmmakers, a showcase of Australian and French works. The Annecy International Film Festival annually rewards the best of the world's creativity in short and feature films. The Anim'Action Film Festival is proud to offer you the best of their selection celebrating the creativity and diversity of animation styles and techniques.

The Anim’Action Film Festival was created in 2022 under the patronage of the French Embassy, in partnership with the Annecy International Animation Film Festival and the support of the Institut Français, and with UTS Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences and UTS Animation Guild (Sydney), Alliance Française of Brisbane and Griffith Film School (Brisbane).

In 2023 we are proud to welcome Alliance Française of Adelaide and Flinders University (Adelaide).
