Red, White and Blue Animation

Part of the Retrospective: The Future Is History Strand

Body

Britain, Britain, Britain. In the wake of Brexit, come to celebrate/bemoan our departure from the European Union with this dazzling collection of British animation that take a reflective look at our national identity. Our main attraction is the late, great Bob Godfrey (MBE), the first British animator to win an Academy Award for Great, released in 1975. That same year the British people also participated in a referendum on the United Kingdom’s membership of the European Economic Community. To quote Bob Godfrey: “British films made by British labour!”
