Plot

The seven short films making up GENIUS PARTY couldn’t be more diverse, linked only by a high standard of quality and inspiration. Atsuko Fukushima’s intro piece is a fantastic abstraction to soak up with the eyes.

Sinekatalog’s take

Seven animated shorts from different studios share one banner, and the results range from dazzling to merely odd. Visual invention is the common thread, so expect an experimental collage rather than a story. Great for animation fans with an appetite for the strange.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
