The race in the short film categories is taking shape, offering a showcase for emerging filmmakers, well-known talents and storytellers pushing the boundaries of what can be accomplished in 40 minutes or less.

Short films are often a place for new animation techniques to be given an opportunity to be used in surprising ways.

For the director of “Praying Mantis,” it was a way to bring his love of hand-drawn 2D animation together with his passion for horror films. Helmer Joe Hsieh spent about four years bringing this project to the screen.
