Animal Antics, dir. Patrick Goddard, UK 2021, 38 min., English

BFI London Film Festival 2021

Defiantly non-conformist, this selection of shorts offers multi-perspective musings on existence, from the humorous to the sublime.




Sarah and talking dog Whoopsie take a trip to the zoo in Patrick Goddard’s absurdist comedy with a political edge.




Rachel Maclean’s bright, emoji-feminist fairy tale-style touches a new darkness in her first completely animated short.




2D Joan’s Immaculate Hair, Nails and Beauty salon hosts contemporary and historical figures of gender non-conformity, plus a televised CGI mythological baby.




Performers Soroya, Harry and Kenya lip-synch queer community experiences using archive sound, directed by London-based Joseph Wilson.




Neuro-diverse artist Eden Kötting’s remarkable drawings, paintings and collages create an illusory, animated world where the rules change and everything is possible.




Visually dramatic episodes shatter the colonial and the conventional in Sin Wai Kin’s (fka Victoria Sin) stunning exploration of desire, identity and fantasy.
