​

The International Festival of Animated Dance is an event entirely dedicated to the promotion of a genre, artistic and cultural, which takes shape at the crossroads of dance and the animated image resulting from digital arts, animation cinema or even plastic arts.

This is a moment of international influence for dance animations in all their forms: 2D animations, 3D animations, mixed and experimental animations, live, AR/VR and stage animations.

​

The ambition of the festival is to invite the public to discover animated dance through screenings, retrospectives, meetings and exchanges with the actors of a transdisciplinary and emerging genre. With its specific international programming, it also aims to attract professionals from all over the world around the creation of an International Market for Animated Dance (MIDA).

​

For its third edition, and in such a particular context, Hangars Numériques affirms the need for a unique setting for professionals and the public. The programming is articulated online and on site, with particular attention to young IRL audiences in Reunion. The festival is also the place of restitution of residencies and co-productions led by the study and research center. Specific performances and actions invite us to question the artistic, but also philosophical, underlying issues of the genre.
