MARCEL JEAN For the eleventh time now, I’ve had the great honour of endorsing the programme for the Annecy International Animation Film Festival. It was put together through the joint efforts of a team of enthusiasts who viewed thousands of movies over the past few months. |

RIMA ABDUL-MALAK With its lake and mountains, Annecy has served as the most stunning backdrop to the world’s top animation event since 1960. For days on end the city teems with fancy and fantasy, and throbs to the beat of animated images. |

DOMINIQUE BOUTONNAT We’re very happy to support the Annecy International Animation Film Festival because it’s not only the nerve centre of worldwide animation but also a yearly highpoint loved by all – audiences and professionals – for its encompassing spirit and creative energy, especially this year thanks to the fabulous artistic promise of guest-of-honour Mexico. |

LAURENT WAUQUIEZ The Lumière brothers invented cinema, right here in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes in the 19th century. Ever since that inaugural moment, our region has never failed to build on this legacy, to keep it vibrant and to continue to invent the history of the Seventh Art. |

From 11 to 17 June next, Annecy and all of Haute-Savoie will once again rock to the rhythm of the International Animation Film Festival and Market, this year basking in the glow of Mexico. |

FRANÇOIS ASTORG The International Animation Film Festival is above all the men and women of Annecy who, for several days, will swing to the beat of moving images, encounters between professionals and enthusiasts, and outdoor screenings. And in this vintage year 2023 imbued with the savours of Mexican animation, it’s the promise of a week that should be flavoursome, hearty and daring for us all! |

VÉRONIQUE ENCRENAZ Mexican animation has top billing this year at both the Festival and the Market. This long-anchored history between Annecy and Mexico has thus crystallized in many shared projects. In addition to the presence of Mexican exhibitors and an extended Market umbrella for them, a number of events centred on Mexican animation will illuminate the 4 days of Mifa. |
