CRUMBS and POSSESSED at Fantasia festival 2015

Two Spanish films will be shown at Fantasia festival this year:

• CRUMBS (Ethiopia/Spain/Finland; Dir: Miguel Llansó): Ethiopia’s first sci-fi feature also happens to be a postapocalyptic black comedy, an eccentric love story and a brilliant blast of politically charged surrealism that exists in a space between Alex Cox and Alejandro Jodorowsky. Probably the single most unusual and unforgettable film you will see anywhere this year, screening in our Camera Lucida section. Official Selection: Rotterdam International Film Festival. Canadian Premiere.

• POSSESSED (Spain; Dir: Sam Ortí Martí, a.k.a. Sam): An instant classic of wickedly fun (and imaginatively grotesque) stop-motion comedy/horror that many have described as PARANORMAN meets WALLACE & GROMIT by way of SOUTH PARK, POSSESSED is the manic creation of Goya-nominated anima-lunatic Sam Ortí Martí, featuring the voices of Santiago Segura, Anabel Alonso and Nacho Vigalondo. Official Selection Sitges, Athens Animfest, Canadian Premiere.
