Animation at War

A young girl looks forward in the wind in a forest.

A year-long series exploring how filmmakers use animation to capture the chaos, complexity and human cost of war.

Our new series explores how artists and storytellers from around the world address themes of war and conflict through animation, using the allegorical, expressive and creative capabilities of the artform to explore profound human experiences.

Spanning decades and featuring rare screenings of films from around the world, Animation at War takes a thoughtful gaze at works that use animation to circumvent our defences and confront us with the psychological horrors of combat, the looming threat of nuclear annihilation, and the tragedy of life lived in the shadow of war.
