“Manege Frei”
August 21st, 2006
An encaged circus bear dreams of his liberation. Trapped by his fear, his wishes to escape are visualised through a ghost twin.
Ljubisa Djukic studied at the Animation School Hamburg, and is the Art Director and founder of the dyrdee media company located in Berlin, Germany.
I had the pleasure of seeing this film screened at the Ottawa Film Festival last year, and in my opinion, it was one of the most memorable ones at the festival. The expressions that Ljubisa is able to achieve on his characters makes for a very heartfelt short.
“Manege Frei” premiers on Episode 5 of the Nicktoons Newtork Animation Festival, Tuesday August 29, 2006 at 10PM EST/7PM PST.

I think this is the film that won the grand-prize for the TGSNT last year!
