In this 21st edition of Vila do Conde's Animation Film Festival — Animar — schools across the country can host three film programmes in their auditoriums, libraries or classrooms, adapted to different age groups — over three, twelve and fourteen years of age.
Program
The school programme Animar Films on Cinema brings together the four short films featured in the ANIMAR 21 exhibition, on display at Solar – Cinematic Art Gallery. Viewing these works in their entirety complements a visit to the exhibition, enriching the audience's experience. In addition to allowing contact with the narratives of the films, the visit also provides an insight into the different stages and aspects of the creative and production process of animated works.

After another sleepless night, a socially frustrated man encounters a strange community living in his building. To break the boredom, he decides to visit them, which quickly turns into a bizarre experience that will lead him to question whether what is happening is real.
After the death of his owner and companions, a dog is abandoned in his own home. He howls night and day, disturbing the whole neighbourhood. In the house next door, a man's age distances him from everyone around him. His granddaughter, Marta, returns from London, where she felt lonelier than ever.
With the sea and the urban Algarve as a background, we follow a complete cycle of the life of a special shellfish called PERCEBES, goose barnacle. From their formation, to the dish, in this journey, we cross different contexts that allow us to better understand this region and those who live there.
It's Saturday, a day of rest. A woman wakes up early because she wants to give herself a gift: time. But whenever a moment of inspiration arises, she is interrupted by domestic situations that demand her attention: the children, the laundry, the meals. The mental burden of these tasks becomes unbearable and she reaches breaking point.
