– On Tuesday evening ASIFA-East will be celebrating the work of Bruno Bozzetto, Italy’s Master of Animation, with the screening of his film, Allegro Non Troppo, the animated parody of Fantasia.
I’ll be hosting a Q&A afterward, and we hope there’ll be a good turnout for this film.

Mr. Bozzetto is on his way to Ottawa as a judge. They’ll also be hosting a more extensive retrospective of his enormous output. Any of you heading to Ottawa should attend as many of these screenings as you can. His work is brilliant.

The ASIFA-East screening will be held at: The School of Visual Arts, 209 East 23rd Street, 3rd floor amphitheatre on Tues, Sept. 19. Admission is FREE.

Go to the Bruno Bozzetto website and explore the flash films. They’re great.

    I wish I can go to the screening. I saw Allegro Non Troppo at the Licoln Center Walter Reid Theater with my father. I loved the Slavonic Dance no. 7. I loved the orchestra too :)
