Cardiff Animation Festival 2022-23

April 2022, Cardiff Animation Festival (CAF) is back for its third year, and has announced its official selection of 102 animated short films in competition.

This year, Cardiff Animation Festival is going hybrid, with online events held throughout April, and in-person events held at Chapter Arts Centre in Cardiff from 7–10 April. 

A full jam-packed programme of screenings, masterclasses, Q&As, networking events and parties will be announced in early March, but key among them are the short film screenings that showcase some of the best animated work that has been made over the last two years.

With 102 short films from 22 countries – over half of which were directed by women – the selection features a variety of unique voices and a diverse range of stories.
