Where Animated Dreams Come to Life
Animation Screenings Film Festival Striped Tale is a dynamic international film festival and screenplay contest dedicated to animation in all its forms. We showcase outstanding animated films across genres, from traditional hand-drawn works to groundbreaking CGI, stop-motion, and mixed media.
Our live screenings take place in Tbilisi, creating an immersive experience for filmmakers and audiences alike. Additionally, our Festival Channel provides online access, expanding the reach of the films beyond physical borders.
Every selected film receives thoughtful audience reviews!
Our curated audience—including film professionals, producers, and dedicated fans—provides meaningful feedback for each film. These reviews will be available on your film’s dedicated page on our website, helping you understand your film’s impact and enhancing its marketing and distribution potential.
📖 Expanding Our Platform for Screenwriters
In addition to films, we also accept screenplay submissions. Every submitted screenplay receives detailed feedback and a brief analysis from our team. To further highlight promising works, the first five pages (or a number chosen by the author) will be made available for public reading on the festival platform during the event days, giving screenwriters additional exposure to filmmakers and industry professionals.
