2017 Official Selections

NW Animation Fest received 1134 unique film entries this season. Of these, 167 of the very best will be shown during our 2017 events. Many excellent films could not be included simply due to limited screen time. We applaud the efforts of every artist exploring this challenging medium, and sincerely thank each of you who so generously shared your work.
