YES-PEOPLE selected for Annecy International Animated Film Festival

Yes-People by Gísli Darri Halldórsson has been selected for Annecy International Animated Film Festival, which will take place online from June 15 - 30. Many film festivals are now in a digital version due to Covid-19, and Yes-People will also screen online at Internationales Trickfilm-Festival Stuttgart from May 5 - 10.

Yes-People has been well-received since its world premiere last January at Minimalen Short Film Festival in Trondheim, Norway. The film has also been selected for San Fransisco International Film Festival in USA, ANIFILM in Czech Republic, and MONSTRA Festival in Portugal.

The film is an animated short and tells the story of an eclectic mix of people who one morning face the everyday battle - such as work, school and dish-washing. As the day progresses, their relationships are tested and ultimately their capacity to cope. 

Yes-People is directed and written by Gísli Darri Halldórsson and produced by Arnar Gunnarsson and Halldórsson for the production company CAOZ.
