ars we are being very festival-active lately…

We have six shorts selected for the Kinofest Film Festival:

• Ahawa
• Beirut
• La Fille a Cent Sous
• Lost
• Synchro (which is not a yelostudio movie but a collaborative work with several friends: Theresa Abboud, Amandine Brenas, Marylin Farah, and Patrick Sfeir)
• Zeid & Leila

Kinofest is an ambitious Romanian festival which promotes young film-makers. It has a very good selection and we are really happy to contribute.

Two yelostudio movies (“La Fille à Cent Sous” and “Zeid & Leila”) have been selected for the NO TABOO 2009, 4th International Festival of Animation and Sex Education in Rio de Janeiro! This is a festival that concentrates on animation in relation with sex & relationships! We don’t always make a fuss about it when we are selected, but we are specially proud to be screened there, at a festival that treats animation as a mature medium for a mature audience…And that has “sex” in its title!

From the website:
The Short Animation Competition Program is made up of Brazilian and foreign animations from Australia, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Korea, Denmark, Slovakia, Slovenia, USA, France, Germany, India, Israel, Italy, Lebanon (<– that’s us!!), Malaysia, United Kingdom, Sweden and Uruguay. The subjects covered by the animations are related to love, romance, safe sex, relationships, sexuality, gender, sexual diversity and eroticism, many animations treat the subject with good humor.

So if you have some money, I expect you to book a trip there right away so you can watch our movies in all their sexy glory.
