For 15 years the truly wonderful organizers of this popular event have brought cartoons and animations, that appeal to both adults and children alike, to the screens of Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo.

Anima Mundi offers courses throughout the year, with free animation workshops, lectures, special exhibitions and an internet-based competition during the run of the festival.
